Alexandria Agee Ms. Songer AP Biology February 16 2015 Sickle Cell Anemia: Case Study Summary Sickle Cell Anemia is a painful diseases that is caused by a mutation in the protein called hemoglobin which helps carry oxygen in red blood cells. Because of the mutation‚ the hemoglobin is shaped oddly which results in pain because it is hard for the blood to travel throughout the body and anemia because of the lack of oxygen in the blood. A person can only have this disease if both parents are carriers
Free Sickle-cell disease Red blood cell Mutation
Anemia is a disease state that is characterized by a reduction of hemoglobin (Hb) or volume of red blood cells (RBC’s). The reduction in Hb or RBC’s leads to diminished oxygen carrying ability of the blood. Many forms of anemia exist – the anemias discussed will be relevant to our patient‚ JJ‚ based on her signs/symptoms and past medical history (PMH). Anemia can be classified based on the appearance or size of the RBC. The size of the RBC can be determined by either calculating the mean corpuscular

When the patient’s blood cells were compared to normal blood cells‚ they appeared to be “sickle shaped”. After seeing this for himself Dr. Herrick took

Premium Anemia Red blood cell Hemoglobin
Sickle cell anemia is a genetic disease that affects the shape and functionality of red blood cells. It is caused by a mutation in the DNA of the protein‚ hemoglobin‚ specifically in the beta chain. There are 531 base pairs in this DNA strand. Substitution or point mutation occurs‚ causing “GAG” to become “GTG”. This results in valine being created instead of glutamate. The mutation causes the hemoglobin to cling together in low oxygen levels and the red blood cell changes shape‚ preventing it from
