Protein Families02:47

Protein Families

17.0K
Protein families are groups of homologous proteins; that is, they have similarities in amino acid sequences and three-dimensional structures. Protein families usually occur because of gene duplication, where an additional copy of a gene is inserted into the genome of an organism.   Mutations that change the amino acids but still allow the protein to be properly synthesized, will lead to new protein family members.   If these new proteins contain similar amino acids in key...

Gene Families

10.0K
Gene families consist of groups of genes proposed to have originated from a common ancestor. Typically these arise through events in which a gene or genes are mistakenly duplicated during cell division. Unlike their parent genes (which are subject to selection pressure to maintain function), these gene copies do not need to preserve their sequences and may evolve at a relatively faster rate.
Occasionally these regions can be adapted to take on new roles within the organism, becoming novel genes...

Family Therapy

599
Family therapy conceptualizes psychological challenges as arising from dysfunctional interactions within the family unit, rather than as isolated issues within individuals. This approach seeks to address and transform the patterns of communication, roles, and relationships within families to promote healthier dynamics and emotional well-being for all members.

Sources of Self-Esteem I: Family Experience

196
Self-esteem, a crucial component of psychological development, is significantly shaped by familial experiences. The early parent-child relationship serves as a foundational influence on a child's self-concept, with long-lasting effects extending into adolescence and adulthood.Parental Behaviors and Early Self-Esteem FormationEmpirical studies have identified four principal parental behaviors that foster healthy self-esteem in children. These include expressions of acceptance, affection, and...

Area of Science:

  • Hepatology and Genetics
  • Molecular Medicine

Background:

  • Genetic cholestasis encompasses a group of rare liver diseases.
  • Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is a significant subtype.
  • Genetic investigation has been crucial in understanding PFIC.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the major genes implicated in PFIC.
  • To describe the phenotypic spectrum and disease mechanisms.
  • To discuss current and future therapeutic strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Genetic analysis of PFIC patients.
  • Review of literature on PFIC-associated genes.
  • Correlation of genotype with phenotype and disease mechanisms.

Main Results:

  • Key PFIC genes identified: ATP8B1 (FIC1), ABCB11 (BSEP), ABCB4 (MDR3), TJP2, NR1H4 (FXR), and MYO5B.
  • Detailed description of phenotypes linked to mutations in these genes.
  • Elucidation of underlying disease mechanisms for each gene.

Conclusions:

  • Genetic discoveries have significantly advanced the understanding of PFIC.
  • Variations in treatment response are observed, suggesting gene-specific therapeutic targets.
  • Emerging therapeutic targets offer hope for improved patient outcomes.
