RNA polymerase III subunit A

The POLR3A gene provides instructions for making the largest piece (subunit) of an enzyme called RNA polymerase III. This enzyme is involved in the production (synthesis) of RNA, a chemical cousin of DNA. The RNA polymerase III enzyme attaches (binds) to DNA and synthesizes RNA molecules using the instructions carried by the DNA, a process called transcription. RNA polymerase III helps synthesize several forms of RNA, including ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and transfer RNA (tRNA). Molecules of rRNA and tRNA assemble protein building blocks (amino acids) into working proteins; this process is essential for the normal functioning and survival of cells.

Tests d'anticorps et d'antigènes

False positive antigen tests (where the test is positive but the person doesn't actually have the infection) are unusual - false negative tests are more common, particularly if the swab-taking technique was not very good. Some tests can be done at home, for example a lateral flow test for COVID-19, whereas others need to be sent off to a lab, such.

Maladies de stockage du glycogène

Glycogen storage disorders are a group of inherited diseases. They result from a problem with one of the proteins (known as enzymes) involved in the conversion of glucose to glycogen, or the breakdown of glycogen back into glucose. They mostly tend to affect your liver and muscles. Newer treatment possibilities provide hope for an improved outlook.
