The body's nonspecific defiance against invading pathogens is known as innate immunity and includes the following:
mechanical barriers and surface secretions
1. The intact skin and mucous membranes of the body. These provide a high degree of protection against pathogens.
2. The sebaceous secretions and sweat of the skin contain bactericidal and fungicidal fatty acids that can kill bacteria and fungi.
3. Normal bacterial flora of the skin may produce various antimicrobial substances such as bacteriocines and acids.
Humoral defence mechanisms
1. Lysozyme. This is an enzyme found in most tissue fluids apart from cerebrospinal fluid, urine, and sweat. It can kill bacteria.
2. Interferon. Inhibits viruses from replicating
3. Complement. This is a heat labile serum that can destroy gram-negative bacteria.
The level of protein X in these patients will be low due to degradation in the proteasome. Ubiquitnation process occur when ubiquitin is attached to a particular protein and the protein become deactivated. Ubiquitin is a small biochemical molecule which marks out proteins for destruction. Any protein that have ubiquitin attached to it will be transported to the proteasome for destruction by degradation.
The atomic number where as the atomic mass refers to the number of both neutrons and protons and the symbol refers to the element
Since simple sugars follow the Cn(H2O)n formula, if you had 11 oxygen
atoms, this would produce the simple sugar formula of C11H22O11.
Therefore, there should be 22 hydrogen atoms.
Answer:
H. pylori (Helicobacter pylori) is a bacteria that maintains homeostasis of the human body by establishing chronic infection from ulcers and gastritis and using the method of autophagy to cleanse the body of damaged cells. H. pylori also contributes to the workings of the immune defense system.
