A change in DNA resulting in an incorrect protein is the problem in sickle cell disease. Is this normally the problem in genetic diseases?
| A. |
Yes, the DNA may be “correct” but can produce abnormal proteins which cause disease. |
|
| B. |
No. In other genetic diseases, the proteins are all correctly made, but then they damage the DNA. |
|
| C. |
No. Most genetic diseases result from errors in cell division. |
|
| D. |
Yes, abnormal proteins created by abnormal DNA is the problem in all genetic diseases. |
|
| E. |
It's not clear what the problem is in most genetic diseases. |
Homework Answers
And: D. Yes, abnormal proteins created by abnormal DNA is the problem in all genetic disease
Description: Generally all the genetic disease caused by changes in DNA structure which in turn changes the protein structure. Some genetic disorders inherit from parents. sickle cell disease also results in mutation caused by DNA which affects the protein structure which carries oxygen to the body through the blood cells

6. How can a missense mutation-such as in sickle cell disease-result in a protein that has an abnormal structure? Some of these mutations are lethal or cause serious disease, such as cystic fibrosis and sickle cell disease. Many of these point mutations that cause genetic disorders occur as a result of errors in DNA replication or crossing over. 7. What will be the consequence if a single base is deleted from the coding region of a gene?

Sickle-cell Anemia Study Sickle-cell anemia or Sickle-cell disease, is a hereditary disorder. characterized by aryabnormality in the oxygen-carrying hemoglobin molecule in erythrocytes. Sickle-cell conditions have an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance from parents. The sickle cell defect is a mutation of a single nucleotide of the hemoglobin B gene, which results in glutamic acid being substituted by a different amino acid at position 6. Hemoglobin with this mutation is referred to as Hbs, as opposed to the normal hemoglobin HbA....

3. Sickle-cell disease is a genetic condition caused by an autosomal recessive allele which al- fects one in every 500 African American children born in the U.S. One in every ten African Americans is a carrier for the recessive allels. Although sickle cell disease is caused by a single human gene, it is expressed through many different effects throughout the body. The presence of a recessive sickle-cell allele in humans causes the red blood cells to produce abnormal hemoglobin protein...

With this in mind then it makes sense that many inherited diseases lead back to malfunctions in the...

Mendelian Genetics The gene involved in the disease Sickle Cell Anemia (SCA) is on human chromosome 11. Allele “A” is the normal form of the gene and codes for a part of the protein complex called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is required for your blood cells to carry oxygen. Allele “a” is an abnormal form of the gene. The hemoglobin protein made from the “a” allele is defective. Red blood cells containing the defective protein are very fragile. This disease is recessive–meaning...
