English term or phrase: housekeeping gene

Definition from Wikipedia:
A housekeeping gene is typically a constitutive gene that is required for the maintenance of basal cellular function, and are found in all human cells.[1][2] Although some housekeeping genes are expressed at relatively constant levels(such as HSP90 and Beta-actin), other housekeeping genes may vary depending on experimental conditions.

Example sentence(s):

Here, the non-regulation of seven housekeeping genes (beta-tubulin, cyclophilin, actin, elongation factor 1-alpha (ef1alpha), 18S rRNA, adenine phosphoribosyl transferase (aprt), and cytoplasmic ribosomal protein L2) during biotic (late blight) and abiotic stresses (cold and salt stress) was tested on potato plants using geNorm software. National Center for Biotechnology Inform
An inherent assumption in the use of housekeeping genes is that expression of the genes remains constant in the cells or tissues under investigation. Although exceptions to this assumption are well documented, housekeeping genes are of value in fully characterized systems. American Physiological Society
The researchers propose that many other housekeeping genes in addition to HPRT may also be found to regulate important developmental pathways. MediLexicon International Ltd

gen metabolizmu podstawowego

Definition from Postępy Higieny i Medycyny Doświadczal:
Defi nicja genów metabolizmu podstawowego (housekeeping
gene – HKG) określa je jako geny zaangażowane
w procesy najistotniejsze dla przeżycia komórki, które
ulegają ekspresji na stosunkowo stałym, nieulegającym
zmianom poziomie we wszystkich tkankach organizmu.

Example sentence(s):

The Friendly Alternative Splicing and Transcripts Data Base zawiera obecnie informacje o 720 genach metabolizmu podstawowego. Zamieszczone zostały tam także dane dotyczące struktury i położenia genów na chromosomie, różne postacie transkryptów genów wynikające z alternatywnego składania (alternative splicing) oraz liczba ich transkryptów w poszczególnych tkankach. - Postępy Higieny i Medycyny Doświadczal
Plazmidy są to pozachromosomowe, koliste lub liniowe cząsteczki DNA. Elementy te nie kodują, kluczowych dla bakterii, genów metabolizmu podstawowego. - opis pracy badawczej
Geny metabolizmu podstawowego, uznawane za spełniające ten warunek, są powszechnie stosowane jako geny normalizujące. - Postępy Higieny i Medycyny Doświadczal
