For those who do not know, mitomycin finds use as a chemotherapeutic agent by virtue of its antitumour antibiotic activity. Mitomycin is a potent DNA crosslinker. A single crosslink per genome has shown to be effective in killing bacteria. This is accomplished by reductive activation, followed, by two N-alkylations. Because the chemical can cause genetic damage to bacteria, it is possible that mitomycin can also crosslink human DNA, resulting in genetic damage.
Asbestos primarily poses a health risk through inhalation of its fibers, which can cause lung damage, inflammation, and scarring over time, leading to diseases such as asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma. While asbestos itself is not classified as a mutagen, its fibers can cause genetic damage indirectly by triggering chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, which may lead to mutations in nearby cells. This process contributes to the carcinogenic effects associated with asbestos exposure.
When something albaze it makes this
An atom is made of nuetrons, nutrino, anti neutrino, protons, electrons, positron, a nuecleus, and an electron cloud. They are all made from objects that are in you besides atoms.
Do rephrase how you practice really makes perfect.
The pigment colors are: red, yellow and blue. Yellow and red combined makes orange. Red and blue makes violet, and blue and yellow makes green.
a change in the mRNA makes a mutation of the DNA
to keep the incision in the eardrum open without the need for tube insertion is application of a medication called mitomycin C, which was originally developed to treat bladder cancer. The mitomycin prevents the incision from sealing over.
No. Diabetes is a condition, not a substance, and therefore cannot be a "mutagen".
What is a physical or chemical agent that changes the nucleotide sequence of DNA?
Environmental Mutagen Society was created in 1969.
Mutagen turns people into what animal it most recently been in contact with.
A mutagen could change a gene that tells a cell when to stop growing.
asbestos
of course it is!
Exposure to a mutagen, such as UV radiation, can lead to genetic mutations in organisms.
No, a mutagen is an agent (usually a chemical) that mutates DNA. It can cause an abnormal DNA sequence in a gene or elsewhere
