| Défi: | Découverte | | Catégorie: | Sénior | | Région: | Niagara | | Ville: | St. Catharines, ON | | École: | Laura Secord S.S. | | Sommaire: | Recently, vitamin E has shown to possibly be involved in gene expression in addition to its antioxidant properties. A new molecule was synthesized that mimics vitamin E but with no antioxidant properties. It is hypothisezed that this sacrifice of vitamin E's antioxidant properties will stop its ability to effect the expression of certain genes. |
