A putative gene is a segment of DNA that is presumed to encode a gene based on various types of evidence, such as the presence of open reading frames (ORFs), conserved sequences, or homology to known genes in other organisms. However, it has not yet been confirmed through experimental evidence (such as expression studies or functional assays) that this segment actually functions as a gene.
