I’m a mutated gene, a gene that causes people to have a skin disorder with wart like things that can be anywhere on your body. There was mutations in the ever1 or ever2 genes on chromosomes 17q25, which due to a defect of cell-mediated immunity. This disease was cause from an infection with the human papillomvirus, HPV for short.
My host got these flat wart-like lesions all over there body, they were light pink to violet in color and had a scaly surface.
My host got this disease when they were 20 years old, she was worried that she was gonna get cancer on sun-exposed areas. As time went on her warts got redder and more purple and spreader to larger spots on the body. She found out there was a cure. cryotherapy are used in the treatment of benign and premalignant skin lesions. Surgery is also indicated for treatment of malignant lesions. If skin grafting is necessary, the graft should be from sun-protected skin.
How it is at first
How it is after a while
The making of a mutation story
1) What questions did you need to research in order to create your mutation story?
-What happened to the gene in Epidermodysplasia verruciformis
-What caused Epidermodysplasia verruciformis To happen on people
-what is one of the main ages of getting Epidermodysplasia verruciformis
2)what new or familiar digital tools did you try to use as you worked through this project?
-I just used google search as a digital tool
3)What was the process you used to investigate the topic?
-I just typed in the name of the mutation i was researching and clicked on all the different websites that looked trust worthy of good information.
4)How did you verify and cite the information you found?
-I tried to make it easier for me and other people reading to understand what I was writing and trying to use smaller words instead of words I can’t even pronounce.
5)How did the process of completing this challenge go? What could you have done better?
-I think it went ok. It was challenging to find what happened to the gene . Could’ve described the things better, but that was hard.
