Thalassemia is known to be an inherited genetic blood disorder that results in mild to severe anemia due to the abnormal formation of hemoglobin. Thalassemia is inherited by either one or both parents. A mutation in either chromosome 11 (Deisserot et al, 1978) effect the synthesis of beta hemoglobin, whereas a mutation on chromosome 16 affect the synthesis of alpha hemoglobin(Deisserot et al, 1977). Hemoglobin is a tetramer made of two alpha chains and two beta chains (Cao et al, 2010). The…

1. Introduction L-Ornithine is an important chemical ingredient for its applications in food and pharmaceutical industries as a dietary supplement, as it is known to be efficacious in the treatment of liver diseases and wound healing [11]. It can also be used as a precursor for the synthesis of other amino acids, such as arginine and citrulline, and putrescine, an important diamine used as a nylon precursor [28]. L-Ornithine could be produced by fermentation using auxotrophic mutants, for…

The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) within organisms can be methylated while proteins can be either methylated or acetylated. The methylation of DNA and RNA is used for alternative splicing used for production of different mRNA molecules resulting in numerous new proteins. One of the molecules believed to perform the methylation is N6A or N6 methyladenosine. Methylation is the most observed modification to mRNA molecules. Methylation of both DNA and RNA ensures…

other still managed to delete the male mtDNA. On the contrary, when they inhibited both proteins, the male Mitochondrial DNA stayed within the embryo. Sutovsky said, "This research is important because we now know for sure what processes lead to the deletion of paternal mitochondrial DNA from…

The totalitarian regime of North Korea mirrors the one in 1984 by the complete oppression of basic human rights, perpetual torture, and constant infringements of the privacy and morals of the malnourished people. Banned in many countries and viewed as inhumane, cries from the constant torture echo throughout the chambers of North Korean Prisons. Oppressing guards order a mother to submerge her newborn child in a pool of water until the bubbles ceased to rise and the cries died out (Park 1). The…

and they examine lower deciles of tract-level housing value distribution and smaller radius to the hazardous site than GG’s method to capture localized benefits. GMT’s results from strict RD sample within the 3km buffer show that cleanup process to deletion increases housing values by 17.4% at 10th percentile of price distribution comparing to pre-proposal stage. Additionally, housing price raises 20.0% at 40th percentile, 15.4% at the median, and 11.4% at 60th percentile. The similar results…

1. What is the presumptive diagnosis and at least two other potential diagnoses in the differential? Why is the presumptive diagnosis most likely? Hurthle Cell Carcinoma. This is the presumptive diagnosis at this point. The evidence that supports this is the cells were large and brightly eosinophilic which is likely the staining of the mitochondria within the cell. The combination of the eosinophilic staining and poorly formed follicles, likely makes this tumor follicular cell tumor more…

Jay-ce is a 5-year-old kindergartener diagnosis with ASD. She is an only child. Jay-ce is in a general education class but gets support in math and reading by me, the ESE support teacher. As a five-year-old there are a few milestones she should be able to do. For language Jay-ce should be able to recall part of a story, and speaks sentences of more than five words, for cognitive milestones, she should be able to count ten or more objects. For social and emotional milestones, Jay-ce want to be…

population. There are four major forces of evolution. These forces may increase or decrease gene diversity, meaning they can introduce new alleles or extinct some alleles. One of the forces is mutation. Mutation is when an error, replication or deletions that cause new genes to arise that neither parents has. This causes the population to become more diversity and is unpredictable. Another force of evolution is genetic drift. Genetic drift is caused when alleles are lost by random chance. It…

My inspiration to do my project on Cystic Fibrosis dated back on Nov, 2016 when I participated Student Success Leadership Conference at Virginia Beach. One of the motivational speaker at the end of her speech played music video by One Republic “I lived”. In that video clip a teenager with cystic fibrosis was shown and explained how it feel living with cystic Fibrosis. The boy explained that having cystic fibrosis caused him to have breathing problem and he said that he felt he is breathing with…
