A. Introduction Imagine yourself living with a medical condition that restricts you from eating certain foods that are rich in iron and foods that increase the absorption of iron. While it is impossible to completely avoid iron in your diet, even moderate amounts can be fatal in the long run, because your body absorbs more iron from the food that you eat than most people. For many years, hemochromatosis has been a mystery to medicine, and scientists all over the world have investigated the…

very damaging pest) the tomato fruit worm (also called Heliothis zea), the tomato pinkworm and the tomato fruit borer (Helicoverpa armigera), all of which destroy tomatoe crops by feeding, ovipositing and spreading pathogens. Another gene called cysteine proteinase inhibitor has been transferred into tomatoe plants, making them resistant to another harmful pest called nematode. Another ceropin B gene has been used to make tomatoe plants resistant to bacterial wilt and bacterial spot. Scientists…

Discuss the mechanisms involved in the development of Hereditary Haemochromatosis. Hereditary Hemochromatosis is a genetic Disease, which in short term is known as HH. Even if Hereditary Hemochromatosis is a genetic disorder, it’s a disease that can be treated easily. HH is a Disease that has a change in the way that our body works to regulate iron absorption. Iron is an important component in our body, which is required by all cells. Normally the required iron for the cells goes from the…

Bioinformatics coursework- report on IL2RG IL2RG (Interleukin 2 receptor, gamma) serves as a receptor for cytokines IL2, IL4, IL7, IL15 and IL21 (Brandt et al, 2007). The binding of IL2 regulates the activation, differentiation and proliferation of lymphatic cells through both positive and negative feedback loops. It prevents autoimmune diseases during the maturation of T cells, as well as playing a key role in cell-mediated immunity (Liao et al, 2011). The IL2RG gene is located on the…

Papillon-Lefevre syndrome (PLS) is a rare, autosomal recessive inherited, type IV palmoplantar keratoderma (Hart, et al., 2000). Its prevalence is approximately 4 cases per one million people with no sex or racial predominance (Sreeramulu, et al., 2015). Approximately 1 to 4 people per thousand are carriers of the disorder (Sreeramulu, et al., 2015). If both parents are carriers, there is only a 25% chance that their offspring will be affected. If both parents are affected with PLS, there is a…

remains intact. Also, this process causes racemization of amino acids, by modifying its structure and converting L-amino acid in its isomeric forms D-amino acids (Wisuthiphaet & Kongruang, 2015). Disulphide bonds are also fragmented with loss of cysteine, serine, and threonine and formation of lysinoalanine, ornithinoalanine,…

It is also called anabolism or biogenesis. It is a enzyme-catalyzed method in which substrates are transformed into complex products. In this process simple compounds change or convert into other compounds or they join together to form macromolecules. Example: In this process gluneogenesis is responsible for the production of glucose from non carbohydrate originator. Actually biosynthesis is an enzyme-catalyzed process in which substrates are converted into complex compounds. 1. Biosynthesis…

After gram staining both the gram positive and gram-negative bacteria, the groupings were observed. For the unknown gram-positive bacteria, the cells were arranged in a cocci cluster, while in the gram-negative bacteria, the cells were arranged in a rod cluster. Both the gram negative and gram-positive bacteria exhibit a small yellow colony on the TSA plate. After 48 hours, the MSA plate was observed. Individual isolated colonies were found throughout the plate, with a yellowish color. The…

Dandelion (Taraxicum officinale) is one of the most widely recognized wild herbs. Nearly everyone is familiar with the sunny yellow flowers and delicate white puffballs of seeds known as dandelion clocks. Unfortunately, the medicinal value of dandelions is not so well known, and these beneficial plants are often sprayed with herbicides by people who want to discourage them from growing in their lawns. Dandelion is a perennial plant native to Asia and Europe. It was brought to North America…
