What is meant by gene expression?

Gene expression refers to genes being ‘turned on’ and producing a product. The product could be an enzyme, a structural protein, or a control molecule. Studies of gene expression typically measure the production of mRNA. Most mechanisms that control gene expression do so by controlling transcription, the synthesis of mRNA. However there are other mechanisms for controlling the rate of protein synthesis that occur downstream (between transcription and translation). Several of these are described in this animation.
