drugs Flashcards
Gout
Accumulation of purines
Lesch-Nyhan
Accumulation of purines
Dyskeratosis Congenita
Telomere deficency syndrome
Xeroderma Pigmentosum
Global genome NER mutation. TFIIH txn factor mutation
Cockayne Syndrome
Txn-coupled NER mutation. TFIIH txn factor mutation
Trichothiodystrophy
Txn deficits lead to developmental deficits. TFIIH txn factor mutation
Heriditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC)
MMR mutations
Hemoglobin Wayne
Frameshift mutation. longer C terminal tail
Hemoglobin Constant Spring
Sense mutation. longer C terminal tail
beta thalassemia
Mutation in beta globulin gene promoter. TATA becomes TATG mutation
different kinds of thalassemia
Mutation in locus control region of beta globulin gene clutser, thus all genes in clutser not expressed
Hemophilia B Leyden
Mutation in promoter of Factor IX, cannot clot efficiently. Overlapping gene for androgen receptor, so puberty increases txn of gene and condition improves
Fragile X Syndrome
CGG repeats in FMR1 gene promoter, lots of methlyation turns off gene, HDAC recruited and histone closes txn site. CGG repeats
Craniosynostosis (Boston Type)
Mutation in homeodomain MSX2 causes enhanced binding of protein to promote closure
Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (AIS)
Mutation in DNA binding domain or ligand binding domain of androgen receptor (zinc finger). XY karyotype but no male characteristics
Waardenburg Syndrome (Type II)
Mutation in MITF gene, cannot make txn factor for melanocyte induction or hearing cells
Rubinstein-Taybi Syndrome
Mutation in one copy of CREB binding protein (CBP) gene. a HAT needed for global txn
Leukemia
HAT and HDAC fusions make gene constituitively active or repressed
Colon Cancer
Mutation in APC prevents activation of GSK3, beta catenin not posphorylated and degraded, travels to nucleus and induces prolif of colon cells (polyps)
Scurvy
Absence of vitamen C. Enzyme needed to add hydroxyl group to proline needs vitamen C
CML
Philidelphia chromosome. BCR Abl fusion constiuitivly activates kinase
Sickle Cell Anemia
Mutation in Glu to Valine. Leads to Hydrophilic becoming Hydrophobic AA. changes folded structure of RBC
Osetogenesis Imperfecta
Mutation in Glycine. bulky AA within triple helix of Type I collagen, disrupts structure so tendons and ligaments cannot form correctly
