For the basic shell:

sudo apt install gnome-shell
For full desktop:

sudo apt install ubuntu-gnome-desktop

Note that Ubuntu is already a gnome-based desktop and so much of the packages you would use in Ubuntu are also what you would use in gnome.
So normally installing just the shell is suffice. That'll give you the gnome interface and whatever the interface needs to function, optimally.
