Nucleus accumbens

Cellular manufacturing is an application of Group Technology in which machines or processes have been aggregated into cells, each of which is dedicated to production of a part or product family or limited group of families. Parts with similar processing requirements are identified; these are then placed into logical groups called part families and the equipment requirements for each part family are subsequently determined. A part family is a collection of parts which are similar either because…

Chapter 2: The Beginning From Conception to Birth, first talks about how our life begins. Every human being starts with a single cell called zygote. (Berger, pg48). All living things consists of cells that has molecules of DNA. DNA molecules are called chromosomes. Then, this chromosomes contain genes. Each one of us has 46 chromosomes that are arranged into 23 pairs. Except for our reproductive cell called gamete. There are two different types of gametes, for a man it is called sperm and for…

The nucleus is in the center of all eukaryotic cells and is a very important part. The function of the nucleus is to be the control center of the cell and contains most of the cells DNA. Chromatin and chromosomes are also contained within the nucleus. The nucleolus is a small, dense region that is located at the center of the nucleus. The nucleolus' function is to make ribosomes, "the beginning". The nuclear envelope is made up of two membranes, which surround the nucleus. The nuclear envelope…

are intermediate filament proteins necessary for function and structural integrity of the nucleus. Lamins consist of an amino-terminal head domain, a coiled-coil central rod domain and a carboxy-terminal tail domain (Fig. 1A). They form dimers by rod domains and then associate in head-to-tail polymers creating complex network conjunction with other proteins located underneath the inner membrane of the nucleus. Mutations in the LMNA gene affect lamins dimerization and assembly (Bank et al.,…

In order to keep living organisms healthy cells have to go through many stages to replace damaged or worn out cells. One of the necessary steps is mitosis. Mitosis is the process of the body cell and nuclei dividing. This division is the cause of bodies growing and cells repairing. This division is a continuous process which there is four major steps; prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Mitosis is comprised of prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. In prophase chromosomes…

All cell organisms have this chain of nucleotides that give them a unique coding that helps everything differ from one another. Whether within plant or animal cells, these coding strands contain our genetic information. The creation of our genetic codes derives from a mixture of our parent genetic codes. These codes we contain are called DNA, also known as deoxyribonucleic acid. These DNA strands carry all our information. Skin color, eye color, body shape, hair type, etc. This creates us…

I. Introduction to The C-Value Paradox C-Value is defined as “the amount of DNA per haploid cell or the number of kilobases per haploid cell at any given time” (Swift 1950). The C-Value Paradox states that C-Value or genome size does not always equal the number of genes contained within the genome or complexity of the organism. Order of magnitude is when more DNA than what is necessary to encode for proteins. The prokaryotic genome is much simpler than the complex genome of the eukaryote yet…

prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. The stages of which are interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. During prophase, chromatin condenses into chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope breaks down. The centrioles near the nucleus begin to separate and move to opposite poles of the cell. Then during metaphase spindle fibers attach to the centromere of each pair of…

• The nucleolus is a darker staining region of the nucleus. It is non-membrane bound structure composed of ribonucleic acids (RNA) and proteins. It makes ribosomes inside the nucleus and contains all the DNA of the cell. It is also used for cellular reproduction and it is often referred to as the brain of the cell as it controls what goes on. Golgi apparatus A group of fluid-filled flattened membrane bound sacs located close to the nucleus. Vesicles are regularly seen at the sacs' edges.…

The one letter abbreviations for my chosen DNA was MRFRFGVVVPPAVA which it’s protein name is Laforin Isform. The protein Laforin Isform is connected to the disease Lafora disease (LD). This is a autosomal resessive, progressive myclonus epilepsy. This Progressive myclonus epilepsy has different amount of diseases which end up causing muscle contractions and seizures. This disease manifest during adolescence with tonic-clonic seizures, myclones,absence, visual hallucinations and drop attacks…
