Damage to DNA can affect enzyme production because enzymes are essential for carrying out the processes required for DNA replication and repair. If DNA damage occurs, the cell may struggle to produce the required enzymes to maintain genome integrity, leading to errors in DNA repair or replication, which can have potentially harmful consequences.
Yes, Canavan disease is caused by a mutation in the ASPA gene. This gene provides instructions for making an enzyme called aspartoacylase, which is essential for the breakdown of a compound called N-acetylaspartate. Mutations in the ASPA gene lead to the accumulation of N-acetylaspartate in the brain, causing the characteristic features of Canavan disease.
They could not produce certain proteins.
The damage would have occurred on the left side of the brain.
If the pancreas were completely removed, the person would develop severe diabetes due to the lack of insulin production. They would require lifelong insulin therapy and close monitoring of blood sugar levels. Additionally, without the pancreas producing digestive enzymes, they would need to take enzyme supplements to aid in the digestion of food.

On September 14, 1990, a four-year old girl suffering from a genetic disorder that prevented her body from producing a crucial enzyme became the first person to undergo gene therapy in the United States

Cystic Fibrosis.
The enzyme function would not be as effecient, causing the liver to produce more enzymes.

The person who is found to be at fault or liable pays for the damage.
In our body,amylose is digested due to presence of amylase enzyme,hence person gains weight.while our body lacks cellulase enzyme which is necessary for the digestion of cellulose,hence a person suffers from starvation.
Lactose intolerance is the inability to efficiently convert lactose into glucose and galactose, a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme lactase. (A rule of thumb for enzyme nomenclature is that many enzyme names typically take most of the name of their substrate and slap an "-ase" at the end.)
Depends on how much damage.
It means 'producing nothing' - as in a lazy person.
