Definition
English
:
Genes
that show rapid and transient expression in the absence of de novo protein synthesis. The term was originally used exclusively for viral
genes
where immediate-early referred to transcription immediately following
virus integration
into the host cell. It is also used to describe cellular
genes
which are expressed immediately after resting
cells
are stimulated by extracellular signals such as
growth
factors and neurotransmitters.
