A metagene is a unit of heredity found in approximately 12% of living human organisms. It defines whether or not an individual has the potential to develop in response to a traumatic incident.

Those who have developed powers from the gene are known as metahumans. The metagene was first discovered by the super-scientist Dominators during Invasion!
