Identifying genes that may play a role in any complex disease—a formidable task in itself—is only a first step in understanding how a gene or genes affect an individual. Genes act by producing specific proteins that may contribute to a particular biological or behavioral trait. Every human carries between 80,000 and 100,000 genes; the products of these genes—acting together and in.
