Gene
A gene is a molecular unit of heredity of a living organism. It is a name given to some stretches of DNA and RNA that code for a type of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the organism. Living beings depend on genes, as they specify all proteins and functional RNA chains...

Calcium-induced calcium release
Calcium-induced calcium release is a process whereby calcium can trigger release of further calcium from the muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. Originally proposed for skeletal muscle in the 1970s, subsequent research has revealed that it is even more pronounced in the cardiac muscle...
