The SDHA gene is located on the p arm of chromosome 5 at locus 15 and is composed of 17 exons. [6] The SDHA protein encoded by this gene is 664 amino acids long and weighs 72.7 kDA. [7] [8] SDHA protein has four subdomains, including capping domain, helical domain, C-terminal domain and most notably, β-barrel FAD-binding domain at N-terminus.
Also called functionalism. The Darwinian view that many or most physiological and behavioral traits of organisms are adaptations that have evolved for specific functions or for specific reasons (as opposed to being byproducts of the evolution of other traits, consequences of biological constraints, or the result of random variation). adaptive radiation The simultaneous or near-simultaneous ...
Gene conversion is the process by which one DNA sequence replaces a homologous sequence such that the sequences become identical after the conversion. [1] Gene conversion can be either allelic, meaning that one allele of the same gene replaces another allele, or ectopic, meaning that one paralogous DNA sequence converts another.
POLG is located on the q arm of chromosome 15 in position 26.1 and has 23 exons.The POLG gene produces a 140 kDa protein composed of 1239 amino acids. [7] [8] POLG, the protein encoded by this gene, is a member of the DNA polymerase type-A family.
Two copies of the gene must be mutated for a person to be affected by an autosomal recessive disorder. An affected person usually has unaffected parents who each carry a single copy of the mutated gene and are referred to as genetic carriers. Each parent with a defective gene normally do not have symptoms. [23]

In haploinsufficiency, a single normal allele does not provide enough function, so A + A − individuals have a genetic disorder. Haploinsufficiency in genetics describes a model of dominant gene action in diploid organisms, in which a single copy of the wild-type allele at a locus in heterozygous combination with a variant allele is ...
Sewage and fecal sludge management: In cholera-affected areas, sewage and fecal sludge need to be treated and managed carefully in order to stop the spread of this disease via human excreta. Provision of sanitation and hygiene is an important preventative measure. [ 35 ]
