There is a promoter region which controls the activity of the target gene, a region where the target DNA is inserted, usually some type of reporter gene to enable one to ascertain whether the target has combined successfully with the construct and a termination sequence. 3, record 1, English, - genetic%20construct

Les propositions de Kelly [...] sont des corollaires et des spécifications d'un postulat fondamental : «la conduite d'un individu est psychologiquement orientée par la manière dont il prévoit les événements. [...] les individus se distingueront par la nature des constructions intellectuelles qu'ils utilisent pour prédire, c'est à dire par la nature de leurs représentations [...] Le sujet caractérise l'information qui lui est présentée à l'aide de «constructs». Un «construct» est une dimension bipolaire qui permet d'abstraire (en regroupant) et de discriminer : Les objets peuvent être lourds ou légers, les personnes sympathiques ou non, etc [...] Plus généralement, le «construct» peut être défini comme une dimension de la représentation, les propriétés formelles de cette dimension (nombre d'échelons, niveau de la mesure) pouvant varier selon les objets de la représentation considérés. 1, record 3, French, - construct
