75-97% of beryllium-exposed workers who develop Chronic Berylliosis have a common HLA-DPB1 gene variant versus 30-45% of beryllium exposed workers who do not develop the disease.

Chronic berylliosis is a granulomatous disease caused due to beryllium exposure. Its symptoms include cough, fever, night sweats and fatigue.

The HLA-DPB1 gene belongs to a group of MHC genes called MHC class II. MHC class II genes provide information for synthesizing proteins that are present on the surface of certain immune system cells. These proteins attach to protein fragments or peptides outside the cell.

A definitive diagnosis of berylliosis is based on occupational history, positive blood or bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) beryllium lymphocyte proliferation test (BLPT) and granulomatous inflammation on lung biopsy.

What causes large amounts of air to move?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

There is a term "atmospheric circulation". It is when the air throughout the globe moves around. When the sun heats air near the equator more, and less at the poles. So the equator is warmer. The warm air near the equator moves either towards the south or the north, toward the poles. The warm air also rises up, and the cold air sinks. This is convection, but at a global scale. THis is also the cause of wind.

Describe how heat will flow
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

Explanation:

When you bring two objects of different temperature together, energy will always be transferred from the hotter to the cooler object. The objects will exchange thermal energy, until thermal equilibrium is reached, i.e. until their temperatures are equal. We say that heat flows from the hotter to the cooler object.

How to clean out the prostate with enzymes and acids?
slavikrds [6]
Prostatic acid phosphatase was purified from prostatic fluid. Monospecific antisera to the purified acid phosphatase was then produced in rabbits. When antibody was coupled with acid phosphatase, the enzymatic activity was markedly stabilized against pH and temperature degradation. Both acid phosphatase and rabbit anti acid phosphatase were non specifically coupled to Sepharose-4B using cyanogen bromide. Under these circumstances slight stability occurred when antibody was bound to Sepharose, and then acid phosphatase added to the gel antibody complex. When acid phosphatase was complexed to Sepharose, no stabilization occurred.

Which bonds are created during the formation of the primary structure of a protein?
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

peptide bonds are created during the formation of the primary structure

Explanation:

The primary structure of a protein is the amino acids sequence of a protein or polypeptide chain, is the linear sequence of the protein . The amino acids are joined by peptide bond or amide bonds, this is the reason of the name polypeptide.

Carboxylic acid and an amino group form the peptide bond by the loss of a water molecule. The peptide bond is a covalent bond. It forms a relatively rigid unit. It´s synthesis is an enzymatically process carried out and controlled by the ribosome.

The characters of the peptide bond have influence on the flexibility and stability of polypeptide
