Question

Which one of the following statements concerning muscle diseases discussed in class is correct?

            a          Dynamin proteins are responsible for producing GLUT4 containing membrane vesicles in muscle, and their deficiency is responsible for the abnormal glucose metabolism seen in exercise-induced collapse in certain breeds of dog.

            b.         Temperature-induced paralysis in fruit flies discussed in class is caused by a heat sensitive mutation affecting the production of synaptic vesicles           

            c.         Brody syndrome is the term used to describe a condition of prolonged muscle relaxation attributable to SERCA1 gene mutations.

            d.         Brody’s disease is the term used to describe a condition of prolonged muscle relaxation not attributable to SERCA1 gene mutations.

                                       e.         Actually, all four options above are correct

Explanation / Answer

Dynamin proteins are responsible for producing GLUT4 containing membrane vesicles in muscle, and their deficiency is responsible for the abnormal glucose metabolism seen in exercise-induced collapse in certain breeds of dog.

Temperature-induced paralysis in fruit flies discussed in class is caused by a heat sensitive mutation affecting the production of synaptic vesicles           

Brody syndrome is the term used to describe a condition of prolonged muscle relaxation attributable to SERCA1 gene mutations.

Brody’s disease is the term used to describe a condition of prolonged muscle relaxation not attributable to SERCA1 gene mutations.

All these options are concerning as a muscle disease
