Van Eenennaam once hoped to engineer a cow that produced milk rich in omega-3 fats,
One of those animals, a cow, secretes milk that lacks an allergy-inducing protein because researchers accurately blocked its production using the technique of RNA interference1.
In 2006, scientists at Agresearch in Hamilton, New zealand began to experiment with molecules that interfere with the MESSENGER RNA go-between that enables translation of a gene into protein.
RNAI cannot eliminate the protein completely because some MESSENGER RNA slips past the blockade, but each TALEN targets a specific DNA sequence in the genome and cuts it.
Without these receptor proteins to remove cholesterol-containing LDLS from the blood, LDLS build up and lead to atherosclerosis.

The genetically modified rice strain at the centre of the controversy is engineered to produce à Â-carotene, a precursor of Vitamin a, with the aim of fighting Vitamin a deficiency in developing countries.
The trial was designed to test how efficiently the à Â-carotene is converted to the vitamin once ingested.
each group of two dozen or so children aged six to eight ate meals containing Golden Rice, spinach or à Â-carotene capsules for lunch every week day during the three-week trial1.

While working at the Pasteur institute in Paris, he identified regulatory proteins that bind to DNA,
Jacob explained how feedback from the cell s environment changes the activity of the regulatory proteins.
) A key component the haemagglutinin (H) protein on the surface of the virus already contains mutations known to shift its binding preference from bird cells to those of mammals.
Canagliflozin blocks sugar reabsorption in the kidneys by inhibiting the sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) protein
two that encode the haemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N) proteins that stud the surface of the virus,
and six that code for internal proteins. In the three human cases, the genes coding for the internal proteins seem to come from H9n2 viruses a class that is endemic in birds,
including poultry, in Asia and elsewhere. More specifically, the sequences appear similar to recent H9n2 viruses found in China and South korea.
The gene for the N protein, says Tashiro, seems to be similar to avian H11n9 viruses that were found in South korea in 2011;
The gene for the H protein especially critical, because this protein allows the virus to bind to host cells seems to belong to a Eurasian group of H7 avian flu viruses.
In other words, the new virus seems to stem from a reassortment of three virus strains that infect only birds.
A striking feature of the novel virus is that its H protein is structurally similar to that of viruses that don t cause severe sickness in birds,
scientists say that it seems clear from the sequence that the novel virus has acquired key mutations that permit the H protein to latch onto receptors on mammalian cells in the airways instead of onto avian receptors.

a Vitamin d deficiency that causes bones to become soft and even deformed. What s more, the disease was partially a result of the privileged upbringing these children enjoyed,
which triggers Vitamin d production. To understand why the Medici children had this avoidable illness, the researchers analysed the nitrogen isotopes found in bone collagen,
which reflect the main source of protein in the diet. They found that most of the children were weaned not until they were 2, in keeping with Renaissance custom.
Historical texts suggest that at that time, breast milk was supplemented with'paps'made of soft bread and apples.
Neither cereals nor breast milk contain much Vitamin d and fruit contains none. Sixteenth-century thinking also dictated that infants be swaddled heavily.
although they should have received all the Vitamin d they needed before birth from their mothers. The researchers argue that the mothers themselves might have had a low-level Vitamin d deficiency because of the heavy makeup worn by high-status women,
or as a result of their frequent childbearing. Medici wife Eleanor of Toledo for example, bore 11 children in 14 years.
Chickens showed increased levels of Bmp4 a protein that promotes cell death near the tip of the tubercle."

The root of the different immune responses lies with the mushroom-shaped haemagglutinin protein found on the outside of influenza-virus particles
The protein occurs in all types of flu, but the make-up of its cap and stem vary between strains.
But some of those antibodies also targeted the stem of H1n1 s haemagglutinin protein, helping that virus fuse to cell membranes.
Much of the work to develop a universal flu vaccine has targeted the stems of haemagglutinin proteins

Each serving has about the same amount of protein as an equivalent portion of chicken but with zero cholesterol or saturated and trans fats.
when there s not enough animal protein to go around. The United nations expects the global population to grow from the current 7. 2 billion to 9. 6 billion by 2050.
Nutritionally meat is a good source of protein iron and Vitamin b12 but Barnard says those nutrients are easily available from other sources that aren t also heavy in saturated fats.
âÂ#Âoefor the millennia of our sojourn On earth we have been getting more than enough protein from entirely plant-based sources.
The cow gets its protein that way and simply rearranges it into muscle. People say âÂ# Gee

âÂ# To Barnard the simple conclusion is that everyone should stick to eating plants
For one Pearsons suggested that excessive amounts of Vitamin d may bolster the body against measles. There is no evidence to support that.
and kids to take three times as much Vitamin d as their recommended daily allowance. The concerns we have had are primarily with very young children who have family history of autism
In addition to urging them to get vaccinated Pearsons told her congregation to take excessive amounts of Vitamin d.
I also strongly recommend taking Vitamin d at 1000 units a day for young children and 2000 units a day for older children and adults ongoing.
First Vitamin d does not protect against measles. Second that's about three times as much Vitamin d as kids and adults need.
For kids younger than 7 months 1000 international units is actually the upper recommended daily limit for Vitamin d intake.
And babies don't just get Vitamin d from supplements. They also get some through breast milk formula
and exposure to the sun so infants taking 1000 units'worth of Vitamin d supplements a day could easily exceed their daily limits.
(Other children's upper daily limits are higher depending on their age culminating in 4000 international units for kids and adults age nine and older.
-and kid-specific effects of ingesting too much Vitamin d but here's how it impacts adults.
Most studies found that adults ingesting at least 10000 international units of Vitamin d a day have increased an risk symptoms such as weight loss excessive urine production heart arrhythmias and damage to the heart
Some studies suggest people can damage their health by regularly ingesting 5000 international units of Vitamin d a day.
and then suggested taking 1000 mg to 2000 mg of Vitamin d to boost the immune system in addition to vaccinations.
A lot of current research indicates that Vitamin d improves immune response and nothing shows that 2000 mg is anywhere close to a toxic or unhealthy amount.

After seeing the BBC's report this week that Philippine scientists are close to submitting golden rice rice engineered to make Vitamin a for regulatory approval
or squash gene for Vitamin a in rice is to them a sinister act. For countless generations civilization has used selective breeding
It does nothing or very little for the supply of the body with Vitamin a. The reasons are firstly that the body needs additional fat in the diet to absorb vitam A
and secondly that the quantity of rice an average young child has to eat to get its daily dosis of Vitamin a is about 300-400g.
An adult would need to double that dosis at least. The reason for the malnutrition is the lack of fat in the diet.
Its needed this is why you should eat your carrots with butter: -Dont get me started on the reasons for the propagation of GMO tech eg. further industrialization of the agriculture better control of the farmers etc.
The protein is very selective generally not harming insects in other orders (such as beetles flies bees and wasps.
The term soil is used usually to describe a more organic compound that's broken down plants and animals and fungi.
Golden rice which is modified genetically to produce Vitamin a has had a tortuous journey from lab to field.
Soon after its invention media reports billed it as a savior for kids in developing countries suffering from Vitamin a deficiency the number-one cause of preventable blindness in children worldwide.
Opponents also say there are better ways of relieving Vitamin a deficiency such as encouraging farmers to grow
and other staples have reduced already dramatically Vitamin a deficiency in the country. Philippine governmental authorities will evaluate the rice's food safety feed safety environmental safety safety to humans safety to animals all these are considered Antonio Alfonso the lead scientist for the Philippine Rice Research
golden rice doesn't produce Vitamin a it produces beta carotene (think carrots or Guernsey milk) which yields Vitamin a when it is consumed.
And yes cross-pollination with other plants has unknown consequences. You get different strains of plants.
and 19 million pregnant women in 122 countries were estimated to be affected by Vitamin a deficiency in 2005.
âÂ# The article says that Vitamin a deficiency can be cured by growing say yellow vegetables
âÂ# Note that the article declares Vitamin a deficiency âÂ#Âoethe number-one cause of preventable blindness in children worldwideã¢Â#Â
. But that doesn't mean the populations out there are suffering Vitamin a deficiency! The scam of the unspoken connection.
Just because Vitamin a deficiency is so dangerous doesn't mean it's widespread or even existent!
After all how many populations anywhere have populations as widely blind as the statements on unanswered Vitamin a deficiency is intended to suggest?
Also Vitamin a like all nutrients is a powerful poison if present in too high amounts!
To have golden rice as prominent a part of diets in the East as suggested can lead to literal Vitamin a poisoning.

and found less fish and more saturated fat and sodium than advertised. In addition the center has named Long John Silver's Big Catch with a side of onion rings as the unhealthiest restaurant meal in America.
Although other restaurant meals have more calories the center says the Big Catch caught its attention because of its high amounts of trans fats.
It also features nearly a day's worth of saturated fat and more than a day's worth of sodium.
All fish is naturally trans-fat free and contains healthy omega-3 fatty acids. The Big Catch's haddock in particular has saturated little fat.
So the meal's high amounts of trans fats saturated fat and sodium come from its battering and side dishes.
which are a major source of trans fats in food in America. The group is involved in a variety of food-related lobbying such as campaigns to remove junk food from schools
In 2006 the center sued KFC over trans fats in its meals. Big Catch fish pieces are seven ounces to eight ounces of 100 percent premium haddock chief marketing officer Charles st.
In addition the group found the restaurant undershot the amounts of trans fats saturated fat and sodium it reports for its onion rings and hushpuppies both
The biggest discrepancy was in the amount of trans fats the center found in Long John Silver's onion rings
While the restaurant brochure says a serving contains seven grams of trans fat the center found 19.5 grams.
Eurofins found the meal had 34 grams of trans fats. The U s. government's most recent Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends as little trans fats as possible.
The American Heart Association says trans fats consumption is linked with increased risk of heart disease stroke
and type 2 diabetes. Eurofins also found the Big Catch meal has 19 grams of saturated fat and 3700 milligrams of sodium.
The U s. dietary guidelines recommend that most healthy Americans limit their sodium intake to 2300 milligrams a day.
They also recommend people make sure that less than 10 percent of their daily calories come from saturated fat.
For someone who needs 2000 calories a day that works out to about 22 grams of saturated fat.
It should be easy for Long John Silver's to nearly eliminate the trans fats at least according to the Center for Science in the Public interest.
Jurisdictions such as the state of California and the city of New york have banned artificial trans fats.

Unlike mineral-enriched rice golden rice cannot be bred as no varieties of rice produce Vitamin a on their own.
All the vitamins for example are actually potent highly reactive substances. They have to be since they assist in metabolization.
If the person does not have enough metabolizable substances to be metabolized substances like vitamins begin to feed off the body.
Most vitamins are fat soluble which means that if you have too little fat in your system they will not be utilized.
