We usually refer to these terms as either arrhythmia or dysrhythmias. Under most normal circumstance however, Dysrhythmias are the term I hear most thrown around, but both are the same. Two very dangerous and common dysrhythmia's which are responsible for what we call "Cardiac Arrest" include V. Fib (Ventricular Fibrillation) and PVT/VT (Pulseless Ventricular Tachycardia/Ventricular Tachycardia).

<em /><em>Arrhythmia </em>is probably the term you're looking for.

The prefix "a-" means "not" and the suffix/root "-rhythmia" means "rhythmic."

You have isolated a previously unstudied protein, identified its complete structure in detail, and determined that it catalyzes
Finger [1]

Answer:

An enzyme whose activity is controlled by allosteric regulation.

Explanation:

Enzymes are proteins that<em> accelerate</em> chemical reactions within the cell. Enzymes bind to the substrate in the active site, catalyzes the reaction, for example the breakdown of the binding molecule, and release the product or products.

The enzyme activity need to be regulated. One of the mechanisms by which this occurs involves effector molecules, usually small molecules which bind to the regulatory site, called allosteric site. The binding to effector molecules may activate or inhibit the enzyme activity, consequently increasing or decreasing the rate of the reaction.  

This mechanism of enzyme control is called allosteric regulation.

The description of the protein isolated fits with this features,  an enzyme whose activity is controlled by allosteric regulation.

humans developed antibiotics to fight bacterial infections. however, some antibiotics are no longer effective in killing the bac
andrezito [222]
After a certain period of time, diseases and other sicknesses evolve along with humans, making the antibiotics nearly or completely ineffective. For example, if you took one tylenol when you have a cold, it may not be as effective the next day or so and would need to double the dose. Obviously it will all depend on the illness, and what stage it is in, and the strength of the medication. Also, at one point a vaccine for rabies might need an advanced formula because it might have evolved in animals. The possibilities are endless.
