Document Summary
*one change= methylation methyl added on to dna. Ada"s key area of interest = nutrigenetics and nutrigenomics. Acend states graduates will have knowledge of genetics . Define nutrigenomics; and distinguish it from nutritional genomics and nutrigenetics. Provide example of mechanism of gene nutrient interaction. Provide example of solution that would improve the problem in someone who this nutrient interaction affects. Discuss the value of nutritional genomics to the field of dietetics. *2nd exam will focus on definitions and cases. A-t, c-g (rna has u instead of t) Make t with folate enzyme methylene (convert u to t) *need to get active information from the gene (dna); have to do a few things; Have protein/enzyme copy sequence let the coiling loosen up to expose dna. 90% of dna sequences are wastes; only small portion of protein use for. Genes can be hidden, around segments of one dna string, copied down and assembled together to make sequence.
