A gene product is the biochemical material, either RNA or protein, resulting from expression of a gene. The amount of gene product is used to measure how active a gene is. Abnormal amounts of gene product can be correlated with disease-causing alleles, such as the overactivity of oncogenes which can cause cancer.
