definiens: means a gene and the products encoded by such gene, including, without limita-444 tion,-(a ) any partial or full - length DNA sequence from such gene ( including any mutant or polymorphic445 forms thereof ), ( b ) any RNA sequen ~ e ( including any post - transcriptionally modified variants thereof)446 encoded by any such gene, ( c ) any peptide, polypeptide or protein ( including any post - translationally447 modified varianL ~ thereof ) encoded by any such gene, ( d ) any derivatives or fragments of any of tbe fore-448 going, and/or ( e ) any species variants orbomologs of any of the foregoing . Each Target shall be identi-449 fied by the full - length cDNA sequence of the gene and/or the amino acid sequence of the encoded protein450 or, in the event the gene has more than one splice variant form . by the full - length cDNA sequence of at451 least one splice variant form of such gene and/or the amino acid sequence of the encoded protein ( with all452 such splice variants being included within the definition of Target )
