PROTEIN ENERGY MALNUTRION Types include:[2] * Kwashiorkor (protein malnutrition predominant) * Marasmus (deficiency in both calorie and protein nutrition) * Marasmic Kwashiorkor (marked protein deficiency and marked calorie insufficiency signs present‚ sometimes referred to as the most severe form of malnutrition) Note that this may also be secondary to other conditions such as chronic renal disease[3] or cancer cachexia[4] in which protein energy wasting may occur.

in protein synthesis. In the past weeks‚ we were able to conclude that HL-60 cells treated with DMSO and HL-60 cells treated with PMA will differentiate into granulocytes and monocytes upon treatment (1). We were also able to observe that both types of treated cells will express the beta-actin gene because it is a housekeeping gene. However‚ only HL-60 cells treated with PMA will express the MMP-9 gene by their RNA. The purpose of this lab is to view the effects of differentiation on protein synthesis

17.1 Genes specify proteins via transcription and translation * George Beadle and Edward Tatum worked together with mutated (Neurospora crass) bread mold to figure out that they were missing a specific enzyme (gene) that catalyzed and synthesized a pathway required. They concluded that they were missing that enzyme because it was lacking the amino acid that coded for the enzyme‚ thus was mutated and incapable of growing. Led to the one enzyme-one gene hypothesis. The Products of Gene Expression:

where the protein was fully denatured. Then‚ the curve dropped quickly. With the raising of the temperature‚ protein in the solution got denatured. When the temperature increased from 60℃ to 80℃‚ the structure of protein got unfold. When the solution was heated‚ the H-bond was broken. The hydrophobic parts of protein were inside the protein surrounded by hydrophilic parts before unfolding. With the temperature increasing‚ the hydrophobic parts were exposed. The hydrophobic parts of proteins interacted

High-Protein Diets Christine J. Williams SCI 241 September 19‚ 2012 Diane Carson High-Protein Diets Proteins are a vital nutrient that must be provided by one’s diet. Bones‚ skin‚ muscle‚ hair‚ and most other tissues are made up of proteins. The continuous replenishment of new protein from one’s diet keeps the body functioning properly. When a person is consuming a high protein diet‚ it is inevitable to be on a low carbohydrate diet as well. There are a lot of foods that contain protein and

Give an account of protein structure and function Protein structure 1 Proteins consist of amino acids joined together (in chains) 2 A protein is unique because of the sequence of amino acids 3 The amino acids are joined by strong peptide bonds 4 to produce the primary structure 5 Further (weak) hydrogen bonding between acids 6 produce the secondary and tertiary structures A maximum of 4 marks can be gained from this section.

accessory NEF protein in HIV infection Kanokporn Tangthamvanich Department of Microbiology and Immunology University of Otago [Word count: 895] The role of the accessory NEF protein in HIV infection In human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection‚ there is one essential virulence protein‚ the Nef protein‚ which is identified as a negative factor due to it having a negative effect on viral replication (1). It performs critical functions in the host during the viral life cycle. The Nef protein is only

Gel Electrophoresis Adventure Intro The final goal of this lab was to successfully measure the size of different samples of DNA by placing each sample into a well in agarose gel and running a current through a charged chamber. The DNA samples will move through the gel towards the positive charge. Ideally‚ the DNA will move and create and sequence of smallest to largest. This lab exposes us to DNA technology. Backround Gel electrophoresis is used to separate macromolecules like DNA or RNA by size or
