such as hydrophobic interaction, hydrogen bond, van der Waals interactions etc. Protein-protein interaction plays an important role in functioning of body’s significant mechanism such as replication, transcription, translation, signal transduction, cell cycle, etc. Thus, proteins clusters together in a network map linking together various amino acids by peptide bond forming a three-dimensional structure. The entire map showing events of protein interactions that can occur in a living organism…

Genetic testing is a medical test that examines DNA, identifying any changes in it. The results obtained can determine if a person has or can pass on a genetic disorder or confirm any suspected genetic condition. However, a positive result doesn’t guarantee you would develop a disease even if you are a healthy individual. In return, a negative result doesn’t guarantee you possess a specific disorder. There are different types of genetic testing like diagnostic testing and prenatal testing just…

The Children of Men by P.D. James is a dystopian novel that takes place in a world where humans are no longer able to conceive children. Since the year 1995 all humans have become infertile and although they are required to receive tests to figure out why this has occurred there is no official cause to the epidemic. The protagonist of the novel, Theodore “Theo” Faron, is an academic who specializes in History, and teaches at the undergraduate level and he used to work for the government. Since…

Gene crossover, the exchange of genetic material between two homologous chromosomes, can be observed in many different instances with the help of model organisms. Many scientists observe gene crossover to better comprehend the heritability patterns of unrelated genes (Chen and Olive, 1965). In the case of this experiment, the use of Sodaria allowed students to observe the inheritance pattern of two different phenotypes when crossed in a a petri dish (Saleem, et al., 2001). Sordaria, a…

Yong, Ed. “Fish Watches Food. Scientists Watch Fish’s Thoughts”. National Geographic 31 January 2013, 1-2. In the article "Fish Watches Food. Scientists Watch Fish’s Thoughts”, by Ed Yong, Japanese scientists modified a larval zebrafish’s neurons to produce a bright green glow whenever they fire by injecting a jellyfish protein called GFP which gives a bright green glow when neurons pass signals to one another allowing the scientists to see its brain activity. Since larval zebrafishes’ bodies…

Nicholas Staropoli is the associate director of the Genetic Literacy Project. He has a Master of Arts in biology from DePaul University and has a Bachelors of Science degree in biomedical science from Marist College. The article, “With Global Gene Editing Slowing Down, What’s the Future of ‘Designer Babies?,’” states that not enough research has been done to safely edit the genes of human embryos. While scientists have an idea about which genes control certain traits such as body type, many…

Achondroplasia Achondroplasia is a form of short-limbed dwarfism. GENE: The FGFR3 gene makes a protein called fibroblast growth factor receptor 3. The function of the protein from the gene is involved in transforming cartilage into bone. FGFR3 is the only gene known to be related with achondroplasia. There is also a receptor called tyrosine kinase. It negatively regulates the growth plate activity and stright bone growth. All people who have only a single copy of the normal FGFR3 gene and a…

repairing or directing chemical processes. Ribosomes could be found around the cell or next to the endoplasmic reticulum. Cytoplasm is made up of cytosol. In prokaryotes all the cell content is within the cytoplasm whereas with eukaryotes the nucleus is separate from the cytoplasm. The cytoplasm is about 80% water and usually colorless (4). Eukaryotes only contains the following: Mitochondria are found in both plant and animals cells and are shaped like a rod. A mitochondrion contains outer and…
