obsolete reference gene allele [GENO_0000060]

A version/allele of a gene that serves as a standard against which variant genes are compared. Being a ‘reference gene’ is a role or status assigned in the context of a specific dataset or analysis. In human variation datasets, ‘reference’ status is typically assigned based on factors such as being the most common version/allele in a population, being an ancestral allele, or being indentified first as a prototypical example of a gene. In model organism datasets, ‘reference’ genes are typically the ‘wild-type’ allele for a given gene, representing a functional and unaltered version of the gene that is part of a defined genomic background, and against which natural or experimentally-induced versions are compared.
