What is genetic disorder?
 

Dear All,

I 've just heard a biological phrase which is genetic disorder, but I am not specialized in this field, Could any one give a correct answer?

Thank you!

Re: What is genetic disorder?
 

It's a disease that is caused by an abnormality in an individual's DNA.

A genetic disorder is one which is caused by defective genes or defective DNA. It could be either a faulty nucleotide sequence which could be due to deletion of a nucleotide or insertion of an unwanted nucleotide etc.

A genetic disorder is a mutation or abnormalities caused in genes or chromosomes, especially a condition that is present from before birth

In science, peptide synthesis is characterized as the formation of a peptide bond between two amino acids. While the definition of a peptide is not definitive, it usually refers to flexible (little secondary structure) chains of up to 30-50 amino acids. <a href="http://www.unitedpeptide.com">United Peptide</a> provide peptide synthesis services.

The ability to form peptide bonds to link amino acids together is over 100 years old, although the first peptides to be synthesized, including oxytocin and insulin, did not occur for another 50-60 years, demonstrating the difficult task of chemically synthesizing chains of amino acids (1). In the last 50 years, advances in protein synthesis chemistry and methods have developed to the point where peptide synthesis today is a common approach in even high-throughput biological research and product and drug development (2).

The benefit of peptide synthesis strategies today is that besides having the ability to make peptides that are found in biological specimens, creativity and imagination can be tapped to generate unique peptides to optimize a desired biological response or other result. This page highlights the important aspects of peptide synthesis, the most common methods of synthesis and purification and the strengths and limitations of the respective strategies.
