List of gene families

This is a list of gene families or gene complexes, that is sets of genes which occur across a number of different species which often serve similar biological functions. These gene families typically encode functionally related proteins, and sometimes the term gene families is a shorthand for the sets of proteins that the genes encode. They may or may not be physically adjacent on the same chromosome.

Genes-encoding regulatory proteins

 * Homeobox (Hox gene family)
 * Achaete-scute complex (Neuroblast formation)
 * Krüppel-type zinc finger (ZNF)

Genes-encoding immune system proteins

 * Major histocompatibility complex (MHC)

Motor proteins

 * Myosin
 * Kinesin
 * Dynein

Signal transducing proteins

 * G-proteins
 * MAP Kinase
 * MAP Kinase Kinase
 * MAP Kinase Kinase Kinase
 * Olfactory Receptor
 * Receptor tyrosine kinases

Transporters

 * Cassidy proteins
