How is it different from one gene one protein theory? What is 'one gene - one enzyme' theory? What are the two main steps in going from a gene to a protein? What is the 12 strand DNA theory? What is Inert genome hypothesis? What is meant by an "inducible" gene or protein?
Nucleotidase is an enzyme, which isinvolved in the hydrolysis of a nucleotide to form a nucleoside and a phosphate. Due to this role, nucleotidase is known as a hydrolytic enzyme. Nucleotidase plays a catalytic role in the hydrolysis process, and it converts a number of different nucleotide mo...
The SGOT (serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transminase) test, also known as an AST test, measures the amount of a protein enzyme called glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase occurring in your blood. This enzyme is normally found in the liver, heart muscles, muscles and red blood cells. When these cells ...
Gamma Glutamy transferase (GGT):This is an enzyme that indicates liver disease or corticosteroid excess. Globulin (GLOB):This is a blood protein that often increases with chronic inflammation and certain disease states. Glucose (GLU):Glucose is a blood sugar. Elevated levels may indicate diabetes ...
Most significantly we found the most simplistic laboratory value that should be included when examining resistance-exercise athletes is to include gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT).We found none of our exercise subjects had elevations of GGT while patients with any form of hepatitis, who were ...
What is a gene? (a) What is a DNA microarray? (b) How it can characterize thousands of genes simultaneously? (c) Give an example of its use. What is the sequence of the mRNA made from the gene AAACAGGTCCCA? What is DNA replication and its relation to PCR?
This enzyme is found in cells of the heart, kidneys, muscles and pancreas in small amounts, but it is in much greater concentration in the liver. You may hear your physician refer to it as a liver function study, where it is also combined with several other tests, all of which test ...
The diagnosis may be made incidentally when abnormal liver functions are found on routine blood tests drawn for another reason.Liver functiontests include AST (aspartate aminotransferase), ALT (alanine aminotransferase), GGT (gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase),alkaline phosphatase, andbilirubin. Blood levels ...
Participants in the high-dose EDP-305 group saw a significantly greater decrease in liver fat content, with 45% having at least a 30% relative reduction. The high dose led to reductions in ALT and GGT liver enzyme levels and C4, a protein involved in the complement immune response. But it...
If slightly elevated above the expected ranges, but with all other enzymes (LDH, GOT, GPT, GGT) within expected values, it is probably a condition known as Gilbert’s syndrome and is not significant. CPK (creatine phosphokinase) is an enzyme which is very useful for diagnosing diseases of...
