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?
explain how heterozygous translocation can result in segregation patterns that result in insufficient genetic information in gametes. Include explanations of alternate adjacent -1 and adjacent -2 distribution patterns.
During unit four we briefly discussed maple syrup urine disease. The defect causing this disease is associated with the alpha-ketoacid decarboxylase complex. This disease can result in mental retardation, how does the disease do this? What are the processes or steps leading to this?
lyme disease
6. Describe the disease-causing pathogen for the disease you assayed for, including its mode f of transmission to people. by the outcome Write your reaction to the diagnosis of the patients you tested. Were you surprise of the test based on the scenarios provided? How do you think infection could have been prevented in the patients who tested positive? 7.
Disease causing organisms (and some things that are not alive e.g. virus and prion) • How is it spread, how does it cause disease, what does it infect (location and host)
Disease and disorder assignment I would like you to look at the following Disease and Disorders. Please choose 3 and do a little research on them so that you can answer the following questions. 1. What are the signs or symptoms? 2. What puts me at risk to get this disease or disorder? 3. Can I transmit or contract this from someone? 4. Would better fitness / nutrition help protect me from this or make the condition better? 5. 6....
A topic that impacts families like no other disease: Cancer. Diagnosis, treatment, and recovery all have an immense impact on both the patient and the patient’s family. However, new technologies have greatly our ability to both treat and potentially prevent cancer. One of these new technologies is genomic sequencing. For this discussion, research the role of personal DNA sequencing and how this new technology can be used to treat and prevent cancer.
Von Gierke disease is frequently the result of a defect in glucose 6-phosphatase. Suggest another mutation in glycogen metabolism that could cause symptoms like those of von Gierke disease. Explain why the two mutants would likely share symptom profiles.
Human disease can result from infection by pathogens, environmental conditions, and/or it can be inherited from the parents (i.e. genetics). You are working for the Center for Disease Control and you have been assigned to determine if a new disease results from a pathogen, an environmental condition, or genetics. With what you know right now, how would you determine that the disease is in fact a genetic disorder?
