Insulin is a protein that allows sugar (glucose) to enter the body's cells (mainly liver, adipose tissue and skeletal muscle). This hormone plays a key role in the regulation of glucose levels in the blood ('hypoglycemic' effect). It is produced by the beta cells in the pancreas. A piece of the gene sequence that encodes for insulin contains: 5’ ATG-GCC-CTG-TGG-ATG-CGC-CTC-CTG-CCC-CTG-CTG-GCG-CTG-CTG-GCC-CTC-TGG-GGA-CCT-GAC- CCA-GCC-GCA-GCC-TTT-GTG-AAC-CAA-CAC-CTG-TGC-GGC-TCA-CAC-CTG-GTG-GAA-GCT-CTC-TAC-CTA-GTG-TGC-GGG-GAA-CGA-GGC-TTC-TTC-TAC-ACA-CCC-AAG-ACC-CGC-CGG-GAG-GCA-GAG-GAC-CTG-CAG-GTG-GGG-CAG-GTG-GAG-CTG-GGC-GGG-GGC-CCT-GGT-GCA-GGC-AGC-CTG-CAG-CCC-TTG-GCC-CTG-GAG-GGG-TCC-CTG-CAG-AAG-CGT-GGC-ATT-GTG-GAA-CAA-TGC-TGT-ACC-AGC-ATC-TGC-TCC-CTC-TAC-CAG-CTG-GAG-AAC-TAC-TGC-AAC-TAG 3’a.

do some research on a particular micronutrient (vitamin OR mineral) and discuss its role in the body in relation to infection. You can focus on a specific pathogen or infectious disease, if necessary. In your discussion, I also want you to discuss whether the micronutrient you chose affects race and gender infection rates and outcomes (i.e. does deficiency in the micronutrient lead to worse infection rates or outcomes for different races and gender). Vitamins: A, C, D, B2, B12, E, B6, and folate (B9) Minerals: iron, zinc. copper

A patient swears they make sure they eat plenty of foods rich in vitamin B12, but they still suffer from the anemia, jaundice, and weakness associated with vitamin B12 deficiency. Their doctor thinks their body might not be producing __________, which is necessary for vitamin B12 absorption.
Your patient is a 2-year-old male named Justin. He is suffering from hypotonia (decreased muscle tone), weakness and growth failure, and is unable to walk. His mother has just brought him into the emergency room from the family beach house, where they have been spending the summer, because he has had a seizure. X-rays indicate that the toddler is suffering from rickets, which is a result of a nutritional deficiency of Vitamin D. But his mother insists that her son’s diet is not Vitamin D-deficient. He drinks three glasses of milk a day, and his diet also includes meat and eggs. A simplified scheme of Vitamin D metabolism is shown to the left. The chemical name of active Vitamin D is 1α, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol, and it is synthesized via the pathway shown. Catalysts, both in the form of enzymes and ultraviolet light, are required for Vitamin D synthesis. The two main sources of active Vitamin D are diet and sunlight. Food supplemented with “Vitamin D” usually contains…

Celiac disease is a disorder triggered in susceptible individuals by exposure to gluten. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. When someone with celiac disease ingests gluten, they may experience abdominal pain, diarrhea, or other acute gastrointestinal symptoms. Over time, they may show weight loss, fatigue, or mood changes. In celiac disease, the patient’s immune system attacks and damages the villi of the small intestine. Use this information and your understanding of the digestive system to explain why patients with undiagnosed celiac disease may develop disorders associated with nutritional deficiencies, such as anemia (from lack of iron) or osteoporosis (from lack of calcium), even if they are eating a healthy diet.
