In the ICWSM 2009 Weblog Corpus:

Maybe it’s just the fact that I’m paying more attention to how I look and dress; maybe it’s the fact that being married to a man more than a foot taller than me has finally made me appreciate the world of high heels; maybe it’s just the activation of a previously dormant gene.

In the ICWSM 2009 Weblog Corpus:

We propose that restriction of early blastomeres to the pharyngeal fate depends on both repression of ectodermal genes and activation of pharyngeal genes by PHA – 4.

In the ICWSM 2009 Weblog Corpus:

In combination with other genetic mutations that were not caused by the gene therapy (including activation of the NOTCH1 gene, deletion of the CDKN2A gene locus, and translocation of the TCRb gene into the SIL – TAL1 locus), this caused the development of leukemia.

In the ICWSM 2009 Weblog Corpus:

Here we must however recall that the gene is just the first part in a process which includes activation of the gene, transcription into RNA, conversion into a protein and addition of sugars together with transportation to the functional destination.

In the British National Corpus:

Activation of one gene can lead to the synthesis of a protein which activates some genes and inhibits others, which in turn may control yet other genes.
