I think I donated but I'm not sure!

I signed up for the monthly subscription, but after I put my credit card info in, I got this screen that says that I should verify my paypal information. I didn't WANT to verify anything with Paypal.

I hope it went through....anyone know how to tell? I guess I could look at that checking account to see.

If I remember correctly, in the upper right corner of the page that mentioned PayPal, there was a link that said no thanks.

:hi:

I hate Paypal.

It's a protein. Actually, it's an apo-protein (it's empty of what it normally carries in this form). The protein, when "full" of what it normally carries, is called metallothionein, and carries zinc, copper and probably nitric oxide. It's a very interesting protein and I studied it extensively for about two years. It is induced when the cell is under stress, and it normally carries seven zinc molecules (or a lesser amount of copper, and 20 nitric oxide molecules), and delivers this zinc to certain enzymes (and even to the DNA inside the nucleic membrane of the cell) to activate them, or deactivate them. I suspect that it might be a major player in the system (along with glutathione, glutathione disulfide, and nitric oxide) that controls the switch from cell-mediated to humoral immunity.

If this is correct, it could mean a hell of a lot to people with autoimmune diseases. I stopped studying it when I found out that it wasn't transported by the CFTR protein. I should go back to it, because a lot of good can be done for people, by studying it, and learning to control it's function, but I am only interested in CF right now, and it is not transported by the protein central to that disease.

You never should have asked, you know.

it. Sometimes I will ask her a simple body question and she will give me a very long answer using many words I have never heard of before. She is a body nerd. She was asked to be a teacher's assistant for anatomy and physiology next semester and she is super excited. She has been studying really hard to prepare for the class, even though she got 100% on every test in the subject. I am really proud of her.

I was pronouncing your name Thee-One-In, which I now realize is very wrong.
