Description
Genetic mosaic of the ATXN2L gene.
I translated the DNA sequence obtained from the NCBL database into colored squares. Nucleotides (Adenine, Guanine, Thymine, Cytosine) are color coded as follows:
A = yellow T = red G = green C = purple
**A meta-analysis published in Nature (2017) identified genes associated with intelligence, one of the top associated genes was ATXN2L, which is involved in neuronal function, in the regulation of stress granule and P-body formation. Associations in the ability to learn and to deal with new situations and to deal effectively with tasks involving abstractions.**
