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.
Hydrogen, the lightest element, has one proton in its nucleus, and uranium, the heaviest naturally occurring element, has 92. Element 118 would fit comfortably just below radon in a column of the periodic table containing what are called noble gases for their inert chemical properties.n element s weight is determined by the total number of protons, which have a positive electrical charge, and neutrons, which are neutral, in its nucleus. By that measure, too, the new element is the heaviest ever created.
