    Describe the structure of DNA.DNA is thread formed by two strands, related together to form a double helix. The double helix looks like a twisted ladder. The sides of this ladder are long unites called nucleotides and are made of three parts; a nitrogenous base, a sugar, and a phosphate group. The sides of the ladder or the nucleotides from the two separate strands of the DNA are attached by an appendage made of one of four separate bases. These appendages represent the rungs of the DNA ladder and are attached to the complimentary strand of the DNA. The bases or rungs are made of either Adenine (A) OR Thymine (T) or Cytosine (C) and Guanine (G). The attachment of the strands by the bases is specific Adenine can only join with Thymine, and Cytosine can only join with Guanine. Since this base pairing is specific, if one knows the sequence of bases a long one strand of the DNA one will also know the strand of the DNA one will also know the sequence along the complimentary strand.…

    Cystic Fibrosis Case Study

    Starting thirty years ago, Australians are tested at birth for a range of medical conditions including the spoken genetic disorder, but doesn’t always detected everyone immediately. 15% percent of people carrying the disease can be identified when in adulthood. If the person is effected by the mutation, symptoms such as bowel blockages after birth can make a diagnosis for babies, but the absolute test is the ‘sweat test’. This is where sweat samples are taken and if chloride levels are above sixty percent the person is detected to be effected by the mutation. Also babies effected don’t gain weight and thrive normally regardless of a nutritious and proportioned diet. During pregnancy, a mother can test for Cystic Fibrosis but can’t currently predict if the child is effected or a carrier, or predict the severity of the symptoms. An autosomal recessive disorder states that a mutation must be present in both parents in order for the disease to develop. Cystic Fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder, and thus occurs equally in both male and…

    DNA is a structure of specific molecules and a complex mixture of chemicals. DNA is a nucleic acid, which is a group of complex compounds that can be found in all living cells or viruses, and controls cell health and function. Nucleic acids are composed of polymers and monomers, which are referred to as nucleotides. There are four different types of nucleotides that make up the structure of DNA, which are abbreviated A, C, T, and G. Covalent bonds join together nucleotides through sugar and phosphate. Polynucleotides, or a polymer nucleotide, which tends to be longer than a monomer nucleotide, contains many variations of arrangements of A, C, T, and G.…

    Cystic Fibrosis Research Paper

    Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal (not sex linked), hereditary disease caused by a mutation in the gene called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene, or the CFTR gene. This CFTR gene belongs to a group of genes called ABC (ATP-binding cassette). These are transport molecules for molecules such as phosphate, glucose, chloride, and peptides. Specifically for the CFTR gene, the molecules transported are chloride and sodium. The CFTR protein, which is created by the CFTR gene, has a molecular weight of 168,173 daltons and in length, is 1480 amino acids long. This variation in genes is located in chromosome 7 of humans. Because most people have two of the CFTR gene which creates the CFTR proteins, a person can be completely healthy with a mutation in the gene, as long as at least one of these genes are unchanged from the normal state. Without the cystic fibrosis variation of the CFTR gene, the CFTR proteins created by the gene act as a channel protein which can be found in the membranes of cells which line the passageways of organs such as the pancreas, lungs, and intestines. The CFTR protein can be modified in numerous ways to give the host cystic fibrosis; in fact, over 1000 transformations of the CFTR gene have been recognized. One of the most common of these mutations is a deletion of a single amino acid from the long chain of 1480 in the CFTR protein. This causes a breakdown of the channel made with the missing amino acid, which means that it never transports chloride ions, like it was made to do, because it never reaches the cell membrane. This mutation is delta F508, because the deletion occurs at position 508 on the CFTR protein. These sorts of mutations work to deteriorate and destroy the efficiency of the CFTR protein by changing or replacing parts of the protein’s amino acid order. This order chooses the way that the protein is folded, and if this order is…

    Cystic Fibrosis and the Resulting Damage to the Lungs and Digestive System

    Cystic Fibrosis is an inherited condition. However, the gene for Cystic Fibrosis is recessive and one strand must be inherited from each parent. Therefore, not all children of people with this condition develop it. But of course they are at increased risks of developing the condition. Both parents must either have Cystic Fibrosis, or be a carrier. Since it is a recessive gene, if a child has parents with Cystic Fibrosis and does not develop the condition, he or she will still have the recessive gene and become a carrier. Therefore, their children will now be at risk (Moe, 1992, p. 70).…

    Cystic Fibrosis Research Paper

    The gene is found on chromosome 7, and controls the secretion of chloride, sodium, and bicarbonate ions across the epithelium tissues. The gene is required to regulate the components of sweat, digestive juices, and mucous. The product of the gene is a halide anion channel that contains two ATP-hydrolyzing domains, which allows protein to be used as energy in the form of ATP. Only one normally functioning gene is required to prevent cystic fibrosis. The disorder develops when neither of the two genes works appropriately. This malfunction of the gene is why cystic fibrosis is considered an autosomal recessive disease. If both parents are carriers, each parent can pass on the dysfunction copy or the normal copy to their children. Children who inherit two dysfunctional copies of the CFTR gene are affected and have the disease cystic fibrosis. There are multiple theories of why the mutation occurs. For an example F508 creates a protein that doesn’t fold normally and is disregarded by the cell. If the proteins are not the correct size the production is ended abruptly. Mutations also lead to fewer copies of the CTFR gene production. When the gene doesn’t work, chloride and thiocynate are trapped inside the cells in the airway and outside the skin. Chloride is negatively charged, positive charged cations cross into the cell. Sodium is the extracellular space cation and the…

    Fault In The Cystic Fibrosis Gene

    Cystic Fibrosis is caused by a fault in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene on chromosome 7 at q31.2. For CF to be expressed, a faulty copy of the gene must be present at both alleles; autosomal recessive. Therefore both parents must be carriers of, or affected by the cystic fibrosis gene (fig. 1) for the gene to be passed on. If a person has one copy of the faulty allele (are heterozygous) they are carriers of the gene and can pass this allele on; if they possess two copies of the faulty allele (are homozygous), they will have CF. People who have CF must consider that their children will definitely be carriers at the very least, and depending on the genotype of their partner, may also suffer from CF.…

    Genetics and Unaffected Female Generation

    Cystic fibrosis is a recessive trait. If you have one CF gene and one non-CF gene, you will be a carrier but not have CF. I referred back to Mendel mentioning that the trait may not show up in somebody but it can still be passed on to the next generation. He also states that the inheritance of each trait is determined by genes that are passed on unchanged. So as the CF gene is not present, it becomes present depending on the ratio of genes as it passes down.…

    Cystic Fibrosis

    Cystic Fibrosis is one of the most common chronic lung diseases in children and young adults. This disease which is a life threatening disorder is passed down through families and causes thick, sticky mucus build up in the lungs, digestive tract, and other areas of the body. The collection of all this sticky mucus results in life-threatening infections and serious digestion problems. It can also affect the sweat glands and a man’s reproductive system, which means, makes the male sterile and unable to have kids. According to PubMed Health, millions of Americans carry the defective CF gene, but do not have any symptoms. That’s because a person with CF must inherit two defective CF genes- one from each parent. Now that you know a little about CF, I am going to tell you a few signs and symptoms.…

    Cystic Fibrosis Research Paper

    Cystic fibrosis is caused by a mutated gene, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator. It’s a disease that changes the way your body makes mucus and sweat. It also changes how well your lungs, digestive system, and other body parts work. Cystic fibrosis causes your mucus to be too thick, or sweat to be too salty. Mucus that is too thick causes your lungs to clog and makes it hard to breathe. It can block your pancreas, so you can’t digest your food very well. I believe that cystic fibrosis is caused by a flawed gene.…
