    Study Notes

    Human Anatomy

    • The opposite of the anterior view is the dorsal (posterior) view.
    • Abduction is the anatomical movement of a muscle away from the midline of the body.
    • Adduction is the anatomical movement of a muscle toward the midline of the body.
    • The sacrum is a triangular bone at the base of the spine that forms the back wall of the pelvis
    • Incomplete closure of the vertebral column results in spina bifida.
    • The hip joint is a multiaxial ball and socket joint.
    • The shoulder and hip joint are examples of multiaxial ball and socket joints.
    • Actin and myosin muscle fibers help in muscle contraction.
    • The sartorius muscle can flex the hip and extend the knee.
    • Swimming is not a weight-bearing exercise.
    • Skull joints are not weight-bearing joints.
    • The palatine bones are two irregular bones of the facial skeleton that, along with the maxilla, comprise the hard palate.
    • Swimming provides the least help in the prevention of osteoporosis or improvement of bone mineral density.
    • The posterior muscle group is made up of muscles that extend (straighten) the thigh at the hip.

    Cell and Molecular Biology

    • rRNA is the most abundant type of RNA, making up 80% of total RNA.
    • rDNA is recombinant DNA.
    • Endonuclease is not related to the polymer chain reaction (PCR).
    • Hemophilia type A results from a deficiency in clotting factor 8.
    • DNA material is microscopically inserted into the nucleus during the manufacture of drugs via DNA technology.
    • A girl having no gene of hemophilia is not a possible child of a woman carrying hemophilia and a man with hemophilia.
    • Uracil is not found in deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA).
    • Information transfer from DNA to mRNA is referred to as transcription.
    • Complementary DNA (cDNA) is produced from mRNA.
    • Cholesterol synthesis takes place in the endoplasmic reticulum of eukaryotic cells.
    • Antisense technology targets mRNA.
    • A nucleotide consists of a phosphate, a sugar, and a base.
    • The conversion of nucleoside to nucleotide is achieved by adding a phosphate.
    • Gene therapy can be used to treat cancers, sickle cell anemia, and hemophilia.
    • Sickle cell anemia affects the hemoglobin of red blood cells (RBCs) and is a genetic carrier gene disease.
    • A cDNA library contains clones representing mRNA.
    • Erythropoietin-stimulating agents may have greater risk than benefit in patients with cancer when the goal is a cure, due to the potential increased risk of tumor progression.

    Pharmacogenetics

    • Pharmacogenetics is the integration of pharmacology and genetics.
    • Pharmacogenetics allows designing and developing drugs customized to each person's genetic makeup.
    • Pharmacogenetics studies cytochrome enzymes that are responsible for drug interactions.
    • Pharmacogenetics identifies genetic variations that cause differences in drug response.
    • A person with a slow metabolizer gene of CYP2D6 needs a high dose of codeine for analgesic effect.
    • SNP refers to a single nucleotide polymorphism. It occurs when one base pair of nucleotides replaces another.
    • Ligases are enzymes that catalyze the coupling of two molecules.
