A region of sequence that is transcribed. This region may cover the transcript of a gene, it may emcompas the sequence covered by all of the transcripts of a alternately spliced gene, or it may cover the region transcribed by a polycistronic transcript. A gene may have 1 or more transcribed regions and a transcribed_region may belong to one or more genes.

This concept cam about as a direct result of the SO meeting August 2004.nThe exact nature of the relationship between transcribed_region and gene is still up for discussion. We are going with 'associated_with' for the time being.
