Molecular Biology. Originally: (the name of) a gene that enhances or intensifies the phenotypic effect of another gene or genes. In later use also: a short DNA sequence to which an activator protein binds, increasing the transcription of a gene or set of genes. Also as a modifier, esp. in enhancer sequence.
