Task 4 Christopher Mann Student ID: 000458585 June 5‚ 2015 Enzymes are special proteins that carry out chemical reactions‚ also known as catalysts. Two important features that make all enzymes catalysts are their ability to bind to a substrate. A substrate is anything that needs to be changed into something else. The second important feature is that it works to lower the activation energy without being used or changed in the reaction (Hudon-Miller‚ 2012. The breakdown of

t Unusual headache. History Patient is 63-year-old right-handed white female who presents with her husband for evaluation of an unusual headache followed by hallucinations. She does have a history of migraine headaches with aura. These started over 20 years ago. At that time‚ she had a negative workup‚ including a negative CAT scan. Her headaches usually start with biperipheral scintillating scotoma‚ which in itself can be debilitating because it significantly disrupts her vision and makes it

phosphokinase. Treatment for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Duchenne muscular dystrophy has no cure‚ hence treatment focuses primarily on the underlying symptoms. Essentially‚ medical treatment includes administration of albuterol‚ amino acids‚ carnitine‚ coenzymes Q10‚ creatine‚ fish oil‚ green tea extracts‚ and vitamins. Other treatments to help minimize life-threatening conditions includes assisted ventilation‚ angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors‚ beta-blockers‚ diuretics‚ proton pump inhibitors‚ and

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an inherited disease that is also known as muscle weakness that gets worst after a short period of time. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is caused by defected gene for dystrophy which is a protein in the muscle that is often said to be passed down from generation from family members. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is more common in people without any family history. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is known to only effect guys. Due to the way this gene in inherited‚ girls are not

from the pyruvate molecule. The coenzyme NAD accepts the two hydrogen atoms and becomes reduced NADH2 and the coenzyme-A accepts the acetyl (from pyruvate) to become acetyl coenzyme A. The role of coenzyme-A is to transport the acetyl from the link reaction to Krebs cycle Kerb cycle The kerb cycle occurs in the mitochondrial matrix and undergoes a number of reactions which in one turn

amount being used. The ATP in the muscle fibres is enough to allow muscle contractions for a few seconds. When muscle contraction continues more ATP is needed. Aerobic glycolysis Oxidation of glucose requires a different enzyme and a coenzyme for each step. Coenzyme A is used at this stage in cellular respiration‚ which is derived from from a B vitamin called pantothenic acid. During the transitional between glycolysis and the Krebs cycle‚ pyruvic acid begins to prepare for entry into the cycle.

Then if this shows a negative result they will begin to take tissue samples from skeletal muscle‚ the heart or liver where biochemical analysis is then used to measure the respiratory chain activities and the amount of coenzyme Q10‚ this then allows them to pinpoint the mitochondrial DNA arrangements and rearrangements. • Describe the historical development of evolution and assess social and political influences on these.
