The type of glial cells are particularly at risk from the disease are the Schwann cells. This disease is caused by a bacterium, Corynebacterium diphtheriae, and is caused when the bacteria releases a toxin, or poison, into a person's body. The Schwann cells produces insulating myelin sheath that covers the axons of many neurons. These cells may suffers immune or toxic attacks with diphtheria infection.
Substrate level phosphorylation is the formation of ATP to ADP. Due to substrate level phosphorylation, glycolysis forms 4 ATP.
Adding large amounts of salt into your body causes your cells to become hypoglycemic (net movement into the cell outweighs net movement out) and causes the cells to boost. Via negative feedback loops, your body feels thirsty to dilute the salt in your cells to return them back to normal concentrations.
The correct answer is: a. A site in DNA that recruits the RNA Polymerase
Promoters are regions of DNA molecule located near the transcription start codons of genes, usually upstream on the DNA with the function to initiate DNA transcription. Promoters contain specific DNA sequences (e.g. TATA boxes) that are binding sites for the enzyme RNA polymerase and transcription factors that recruit RNA polymerase. Transcription factors can regulate gene expression and act as activators or repressors depending on sequences that attach to specific promoters.
Hi!
Gene therapy can be used to introduce foreign DNA into cells of tissues to cure inheritable disease.
