1 Enzyme Deficiencies Mini Project

2 Enzymes  As in all organisms, enzymes are critical for chemical reactions in humans.  PROBLEM What happens if an enzyme is missing or defective?

3 Disorders  Phenylketonuria  Albinism  Galactosemia  Lactose intolerance  Fabry’s disease  Gaucher’s disease  Pompe disease  Krabbe disease

4 Research  1. Identify the enzyme involved and its function.  2. Examine how a person's health is affected by this enzyme deficiency.  3. Find out how the deficiency is diagnosed.  4. Describe the effects of not treating the deficiency.  5. What research is being done?

5 Project  You have been hired to design a fundraising advertisement for the enzyme deficiency disorder which your group has been assigned.  Design an ad that  will inform the public about the disorder  Will encourage donations for research  Is eye catching and professional looking
