Glycine encephalopathy, which is also known as nonketotic hyperglycinemia or NKH, is a genetic disorder characterized by abnormally high levels of a molecule called glycine.bout 80 percent of cases of glycine encephalopathy result from mutations in the GLDC gene, while AMT mutations cause 10 percent to 15 percent of all cases. In a small percentage of affected individuals, the cause of this condition is unknown.
The Elements: 2009 y There are 91 naturally occurring elements (but it depends on how you count them). y The heaviest element that occurs in large quantity is uranium (atomic number 92). You can mine it like gold.
But Tom Zoellner said something interesting during the interview about Uranium, that Iâd like for you to think about with me: [Uranium] is one of these thingsâ¦ itâs the heaviest naturally occurring mineral in the periodic table. I mean, the table goes up higher, but this is where it ends. This stuff seems to hit some invisible wall of nature where it has this really big nucleus, this nucleus of 92 protons, and the center canât hold.
