The SUCLG1 gene provides instructions for making one part (the alpha subunit) of an enzyme called succinyl-CoA ligase. The alpha subunit is used to make two slightly different versions of this enzyme. One version is most active in tissues such as the brain and muscle that require a large amount of energy, while the other version is most active in tissues that require less energy.

The SUCLG1 gene provides instructions for making one part (the alpha subunit) of an enzyme called succinyl-CoA ligase. The alpha subunit is used to make two slightly different versions of this enzyme. One version is most active in tissues such as the brain and muscle that require a large amount of energy, while the other version is most active in tissues that require less energy.
Both versions of succinyl-CoA ligase play an important role in mitochondria, which are the energy-producing centers inside the cell. These enzymes are involved in a series of chemical reactions known as the citric acid cycle (or Krebs cycle). These reactions allow cells to use oxygen and produce energy.
Mitochondria each contain a small amount of DNA, known as mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA. Studies suggest that succinyl-CoA ligase interacts with another enzyme, called nucleoside diphosphate kinase, to produce and maintain the molecules that make up mtDNA. Having an adequate amount of mtDNA is essential for normal energy production within cells.

Patient information leaflet
Anticoagulanti
Anticoagulants are medicines that prevent the blood from clotting as quickly or as effectively as normal. Some people call anticoagulants blood thinners. However, the blood is not actually made any thinner - it just does not clot so easily whilst you take an anticoagulant. Anticoagulants are used to treat and prevent blood clots forming in blood.

Patient information leaflet
Artrite reumatoide
Trattamenti includono disease-modifying medicines per suppress inflammation, which can prevent or delay the progression of the disease, and medication to ease pain. Surgery is needed in some cases if a joint becomes badly damaged. See the separate leaflet called Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis. Surrounding ligaments and muscles also help to give support.

Patient information leaflet
Test di coagulazione del sangue
Test di coagulazione del sangue are used to diagnose and assess bleeding problems and to monitor people who take warfarin o altro anticoagulant medicines. You may be advised to have blood clotting tests: If you have a suspected bleeding disorder. For example, if you bleed a lot after cuts, or if you bruise easily. If you have certain liver diseases that can.

Uveite
The uveal tract is the name given to the part of your eye that is made up of: The iris : the part of your eye that gives it colour. The ciliary body : a small ring-like muscle that sits behind your iris and which helps the eye to focus. People who have chronic or recurrent uveitis are us... With prompt treatment, inflammation can be controlled and.

Patient information leaflet
Artrite psoriasica
In some cases, affected joints become damaged which can cause disability. Treatments include medication to ease pain, and medication to slow down the progression of the disease. Surgery is sometimes needed if a joint or tendon becomes badly damaged. What is psoriatic arthritis. Swelling and redness around the affected joints. The stiffness is.

Spondilite anchilosante
Spondilite anchilosante è a chronic inflammatory arthritis. What is ankylosing spondylitis. Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a persistent (chronic) inflammatory arthritic disease. The word ankylosing means joining together or fusing. Ankylosing spondylitis is an auto-immune disease. It is not known exactly why ankylosing spondylitis occurs but there.
