The theory stating that genetic information flows in a singular direction.
What is central dogma?
A tool that allows users to compare and analyze groups of samples within a GEO Series.
What is GEO2R?
Disorder that affects the nervous system, causing progressive damage and loss of function in nerve cells (neurons).
What is neurodegenerative disease?
Microorganism that has the potential to cause infectious diseases. Viruses, bacteria, protozoans and fungi are all examples.
What is a pathogen?
This person's favorite color is orange and is a fiend for canned chicken.
Who is Julia?
The process of copying a part of DNA into a mRNA strand that will later be transported to a ribosome.
What is transcription?
A database that holds known and predicted protein-protein interactions.
What is StringDB?
A progressive, irreversible brain disorder that primarily causes memory loss and thinking difficulties, ultimately impacting daily activities and leading to dementia.
What is Alzheimer's disease?
The body's ability to maintain a stable internal environment despite external changes, regulating factors like temperature, pH, and blood sugar levels.
What is homeostasis?
This person has the greatest number of Instagram followers when compared to the rest of the officers and enjoys good scents.
Who is Aryan?
The opposite of an exon, this is the segment of DNA that is transcribed into RNA but excluded during RNA processing.
What is an intron?
A searchable, integrative database that provides comprehensive, user-friendly information on all annotated and predicted human genes.
What is GeneCards?
A chronic and progressive neurological disorder that affects movement, balance, and other bodily functions. Symptoms can include tremors and excessive drooling.
What is Parkinson's disease?
A chemical process that follows this equation: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
What is cellular respiration?
This officer is in a band known as the Porcelain Jerks and regularly uploads "post-work" vlogs.
Who is Brayden?
Changes in the DNA sequence that alter the outcome of the mRNA and therefore the protein created as a result.
What is a mutation?
Collection of human genes and genetic phenotypes that contains info about all known genetic disorders and info about over 15,000 genes.
An inherited neurodegenerative disorder that affects the brain. It is caused by a mutation in the HTT gene, which leads to the production of an abnormal protein that accumulates in the brain and damages neurons.
What is Huntington's disease?
A chemical process where two molecules combine to form a larger molecule, with the simultaneous removal of a water molecule.
What is dehydration synthesis?
Now committed to Georgia Tech, this person considers themselves a "whole foods warrior".
Who is Bill?
Organic molecules that serve as the monomers, or subunits, of nucleic acids like DNA. Made up of a five carbon sugar, nitrogenous base, and one phosphate.
What is a nucleotide?
A collection of manually drawn pathway maps representing our knowledge of the molecular interaction, reaction and relation networks.
A chronic, autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). It occurs when the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the myelin sheath, a protective fatty layer that covers nerve fibers. Symptoms can include numbness or issues with balancing.
What is Multiple sclerosis?
When a human experiences an involuntary physiological response, a reddening of the face, the lining of this organ also blushes.
This person has an officer position in two math clubs and has vlogged their GHP experience
