Some autoimmune diseases show a positive correlation with dramatically decreased expression of histone deacetylase (HDAC9, an en

zyme that removes acetyl groups from histones). Why would the decreased expression of HDAC9 cause immune cells to produce inflammatory genes at inappropriate times?

Answer:

The positive charge of the histone proteins get reduced due to the process of histone acetylation, thus making the wrapping of DNA around the histones less tightened. The loose connected DNA afterward associates with the transcription factors for the articulation of the genes situated in that area.  

Generally, when there is no requirement of gene anymore, the acetyl groups from the histones get withdrawn by the activity of histone deacetylase enzyme (HDAC9) that makes the DNA tightly wrapped and inaccessible again. In case, when less expression of histone deacetylase enzyme occurs, the process of deacetylation fails to take place. This indicates that within an immune cell, at the time of infection, the inflammatory gene, which was made available does not get re-wrapped firmly around the histones.

Answer:

1. Latitude. Kuala Lumpur is located in the equatorial zone, near the equator, so it receives a lot of sun for the  entire year, and this explains its warm climate.

2. The main reason for this difference is the altitude: while Minsk is located at 280 meters over the sea level, Banff is located at approximately 1400 meters over the sea level. As the altitude is higher, the average temperature is lower.

3. Jakarta: in fact, it is located at a similar altitude of Kuala Lumpur (just in the opposite hemisphere), in the equatorial zone, while Baltimore is located much more north, so in a colder region.

4. Because they are located at approximately same latitude (just in the opposite hemisphere), so they are more or less same distance from the equator, and they receive more or less same amount of sun light, therefore they have similar climate.
