the Aegean Sea in 384 B. C. At the age of eighteen
he entered Plato's school called the Academy,
staying there for nearly twenty years. Plato was

student." While there he wrote "popular writings"

Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Pah Enzyme Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Pah Pku
899 words
Phenylketonuria is one of the commonest inherited
disorders - occurring in approximately 1 in 10,
000 babies born in the U. S. It occurs in babies
who inherit two mutant genes for the enzyme
phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH). This enzyme
normally breaks down molecules of the amino acid
phenylalanine that are in excess of the body's
needs for protein synthesis. Because we inherit
two copies of the gene for the enzyme, both must
be defective to produce the disease. A laboratory
test that measures ho...

An ethical issue that is debated in our society is
the concern of driving while intoxicated. Although
