A211

A211 is a designation that can refer to several different things, most notably a specific astronomical object and a proposed gene. In astronomy, A211 is a quasar, a type of active galactic nucleus powered by a supermassive black hole. Quasars are among the brightest and most distant objects in the universe, and A211 is one of many such objects studied by astronomers to understand galaxy evolution and cosmology. Its spectral characteristics and location in the sky are key identifiers for researchers.

In genetics, A211 is a potential gene that has been the subject of research. While not yet definitively classified or widely recognized as a standard gene symbol in all databases, studies have indicated its potential role in certain biological processes or disease mechanisms. Further research is typically required to confirm its function, map its precise location, and establish its significance within the broader genetic landscape. The exact context for the designation A211 is crucial for determining which of these entities is being discussed.
