diseases consequently together comprise a vast proportion of the healthcare system and therefore there is a need to investigate novel treatments as well as more efficient and effective diagnostic methods. There are approximately 50 different Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs), which involve cases where a mutation exists in a gene encoding a lysosomal enzyme required to breakdown a certain substrate. Lysosomes are important membrane bound organelles which contain many hydrolytic digestive enzymes. The

effect several different organ systems, including respiratory, gastrointestinal, and even the reproductive system. The disease is usually fatal, although the average life expectancy is about 40 years old. The mutation effects the regulation of chloride ion channels. Cystic fibrosis involves mutations on the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene and diagnosis commonly requires an analysis of this gene amongst other things. There is an extensive amount of possible

Current research on cystic fibrosis gene therapy suggests that it will become an important treatment strategy INTRODUCTION: Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disease, triggered by mutation in the gene CFTR i.e. cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator. CFTR is an ABC gene i-e ATP-binding cassette (transporter) gene that encodes a protein. This CFTR protein is a chloride ion channel protein that controls the flow of chloride ions and water across the cells. This movement is

natural processes. These processes are: mutation, migration, genetic drift, and selection. Mutation is the origin of all new genetic diversity, occurring when there are occasional errors in the replication of DNA or other elements of the production and packaging of genetic information within the cells. Although implies something negative, mutations can have positive, neutral, or deleterious impacts Mutations occur rather slowly but continuously. Mutations at one level, for example, in the nucleotides

1) State three genetic diseases that often occurred in adults. a) Atopic Dermatitis (AD) Atopic Dermatitis (AD) is a type of eczema by which it manifests in the skin of the whole body. It is classified as an overactive immune response to environmental factors (DermNet NZ 2015). A cardinal feature of AD is a dry skin that makes AD patients suffering. b) Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH) Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is caused by a gene alteration in which it involved in controlling the

research is to analyze and understand the genetic mutation of what causes Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) as well as considering the symptoms and treatments. PWS is a genetic disorder affecting chromosome 15 within three mutations. It could result from a microdeletion or disruption of genes of the paternal chromosome 15, maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 15, or a mutation that inactivates chromosome 15 on the paternal copy. Based on these mutations, the most common symptoms of this syndrome are
