The total proteins are composed of 12.8 grams, while cholesterol at 13.8 grams for every 100 grams of fertilized duck egg (Table 2) (Jalaludeen & Churchill, 2006). Proteins aid in the cultivation of various bacteria whereas it is one of the basic growth components in bacterial cultivation. Moreover, the presence of cholesterol in vivo aids in nurturing bacteria and allow it entry into host cells. (Tille, 2013). Table 2 Nutritive Value of Duck egg compared to Chicken egg.…

1) Which genome engineering mechanism they used to create transgenic ES (Embryonic stem cell)? What is the goal of this transgenesis? Answer: They chose to mutate Sos1 because it showed more expression in tissues and cell lines than Sos2. After they tested which Sos gene had more expression, they moved on to mutating Sos1 in murine ES cells using homologous integration of a lacZ-neor cassette. This cassette was placed in front of the Sos1 coding sequence. The goal was to integrate this cassette…

denatured in Laemmli buffer. The protein samples were diluted to a concentration of 1μg/μl. The different tubes are labeled as follows: GOL for golgi, TUB for tubulin, ACT for actin, MIT for mitochondria, and HEP for non-transfected Hepa-1 cells. SDS-PAGE: A gel was obtained, then while wearing gloves the package was cut open and gel was removed from the cassette. Before putting the gel in the apparatus, the tape on the bottom that is covering the slot was removed. The chambers were filled up…

Maple Syrup Urine Disease Hannah Gentry , 13SK , 8/21/2014 Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is a rare genetic disorder where an aminoacidopathy secondary to an enzyme defect in the catabolic pathway of the branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complex, which are required in order to metabolize certain amino acids in the human body. In other words, it is a metabolism disorder, where the infant is unable to break down the amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine. Build up of these…

During this experiment that was conducted in partners, the concentration of RNase H that was purified in the previous experiment #6 was determined and also the concentration of an unknown given solution using their absorbance values obtained from the spectroscopy apparatus. These concentrations were calculated using the equation of the line produce with the values of the concentration (x-axis) and corresponding absorbance (y-axis) of five protein bovine gamma globulin standard solutions. In…

and to monitor any and all progress the client has made. It is important for the practicing counselor to continually monitor their client during the counseling progress for several reasons, such as making sure the client and counselor are on the same page and making sure the current theory and or treatment plan is proving to be effective with helping the client overcome his or her current problem or issue. Toward…

The main objective of the experiment is to study and localize the fluorescent tags on specific chimeric proteins in a particular cell. The localization of these tags will generate a detailed understanding of the cytoskeleton in the cell, and the main function of using the Enhanced Yellow Fluorescent Protein. With the help of EYFP, the location of the proteins, and the molecular masses of the chimeric proteins should be really easy (Cannons, A. 2006). Consequently to better understand this…

In molecular biology, individuals use different techniques to obtain data for their research. These methods include His and GFP tagging which play an important role in experimental studies. His tagging is widely used for purifying and detecting large amounts of targeted proteins (Kaplow et al., 2009). GFP tagging can aid in the analysis of protein geography, movement and chemistry in a living cell (Lippincott-Schwartz and Patterson, 2003). A His-tag is a sequence of approximately six histidine…

Introduction Cocaine is said to be an effective drug due to its ability to induce a sense of craving and its effectiveness highly correlates to its potential to lead to drug abuse in humans. Despite devastating consequences from drug abuse and addiction, the goal to attain the drug is often placed above others, which is especially shown in animal model experiments. According to the 2014 National Survey of Drug Use and Health an estimate of 1.5 million people aged 12 and older were current users…

“internal security and guardianship over racial purity” ("Heinrich Himmler-ushmm.org). Himmler also established the Security Service, which kept tabs on anyone who opposed Hitler, and also all other political parties and government officials. In 1934, the SD became the only “political intelligence gathering and evaluating agency in the Third Reich” (“Heinrich Himmler"-ushmm.org). After Himmler established the concentration camps, he also created the extermination camps. At these camps, millions…
