|
Exchange of a nucleotide
|
|
|
What are some methods for looking at SNP's?
(snp's are NOT measured using westerns or eliza) |
1. probe based direct sequencing
2. molecular probes 3. Ligase detection reaction |
|
|
What type of snp change affects the amino acid configuration& function?
|
Nonsynonomous change
|
|
|
What are the roles of glucose in normal cell and tissue function?
|
1. storing sugars for later energy use

|
|
Relate acidification to demineralization of enamel
|
Low pH causes the Ca++ ions in the enamel to dissociate more easily
|
|
|
Relate biochemical pathways to acidification
|
Strep mutans uses hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, & pyruvate kinase to create pyruvate. The pyruvate is converted into lactic acid & expelled from the cell as a waste product.
