Whenever a person consumes dairy products, they utilize lactase enzymes to break down the disaccharide carbohydrate, lactose into monosaccharides: galactose and glucose. Overtime, these enzymes become worn and need to be replaced. The following DNA sequence contains the information needed to build more lactase enzymes:
3’ – ACCTCTTACTTTTATATATAGGGAAGACTAATTGTC – 5’
5’ – TGGAGAATGAAAATATATATCCCTTCTGATTAACAG– 3’
