Lue, whose essay described the regulation of alternative splicing and
how defects in this process can cause disease, and Mueller, whose essay described examples of alternatively spliced proteins coded by the same gene with different functions that act in different cells, will each receive a $ 400 prize, and their science teachers, Dr. Martina Davies and Mrs. Jessica Graham respectively, will each receive a $ 400 grant for genetics materials.
Both glucose transport and glycogen synthesis are stimulated by insulin, and
defects in both processes have been postulated to take part in the development of insulin resistance in type 2 diabetic subjects in vivo.
We seek to understand the expression and movement of mRNA from transcription through degradation and the effect that
defects in these processes have on the cell.
He is interested in how information in the chromosome is converted into messenger RNA to produce the SMN protein and is trying to understand
the defect in that process that results in SMA disease.
When there is
some defect in the process of creating, manufacturing, or marketing a prescription drug and you get hurt because of that defect, you may have a product liability claim.
