Gene Expression Market Research, 2031

The global gene expression market size was valued at $8,505.71 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $17,960.77 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 7.7% from 2022 to 2031. Gene expression is the process by which information from a gene is used in the synthesis of a functional gene product, such as a protein or an RNA molecule. These products are often essential for the cell to function normally. During gene expression, the DNA sequence of a gene is copied into a complementary RNA sequence, which can then be used to direct the synthesis of the corresponding protein or RNA molecule. Gene expression comprises transcription and translation processes. Transcription (DNA to RNA) refers to production of RNA copies of DNA with the help of the enzyme RNA polymerase. While translation (RNA to protein) is a process that results in the synthesis of proteins based on the information on the coding genes (messenger RNA). There is a possibility of the alteration of several steps in gene expression process such as in RNA splicing, post-translational modification of proteins and others.

Gene Expression Market

Historical overview 

The gene expression market size was analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively from 2018-2020. Most of the growth during this period was derived from Asia-Pacific owing to the rise in the prevalence of genetic diseases, geriatric population, chronic and acute diseases, as well as the rising awareness for personalized medicine and well-established presence of key pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in the region.  

Market dynamics 

The increase in the prevalence of genetic disorder, growing awareness for personalized medicine, and an increasing application of gene expression in drug discovery are the major factors driving the growth of gene expression market share.
