Function: Set/get for the gene status of this OMIM entry.
The certainty with which assignment of loci to chromosomes or the linkage
between two loci has been established has been graded into the following
classes:
<L>C = confirmed - observed in at least two laboratories or in several families.
<L>P = provisional - based on evidence from one laboratory or one family.
<L>I = inconsistent - results of different laboratories disagree.
<L>L = limbo - evidence not as strong as that provisional, but included for
heuristic reasons. (Same as `tentative'.)

Function: This is true if the phenotype determined by the gene at
the given locus is separate from those represented by
other entries where "is_separate" is true and if the mode
of inheritance of the phenotype has been proved
(in the judgment of the authors and editors).
In OMIM, this is indicated by a asterisk (*)
before an entry number (e.g. *113705 BREAST CANCER,
TYPE 1; BRCA1).
