It might also be an important cause of hip osteoarthritis (OA). Therefore in this study we evaluated the frequency of cam-type FAI in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) patients as a potential alternative cause of hip or trochanteric pain.
Chromosomes are made from DNA. Genes are short sections of DNA. Genetically identical cells are produced by a type of cell division called mitosis. In sexual reproduction, a male gamete fuses with a female gamete to produce a new cell. This is called fertilisation. Gametes are produced by a type of cell division called meiosis.
1 An enzyme called helicase unwinds the double-stranded DNA. 2  Several small proteins called single strand binding proteins (SSB) temporarily bind to each side and keep them separated. 3  An enzyme complex called DNA polymerase walks down the DNA strands and adds new nucleotides to each strand.
