'''The Media Institute''' is a [[nonprofit]] [[research]] foundation specializing in communications policy and the [[First Amendment]].
Random K Syndrome, or RKS, is a genetic disorder in which the afflicted has a serious 'k' mutation in their aeminic acid protein code of the left wing DNA sequence, most often located in the chromozomic horizontal linux patterns of A, T, G, and C proteins in the left hemisphere of the brain. RKS is only found in humans. The random 'k' genetic insertion into stem cells randomly affects the phenotype of the human in a particularly unrandom way.
Like other biological macromolecules such as polysaccharides and nucleic acids, proteins are essential parts of organisms and participate in every process within cells. Many proteins are enzymes that catalyze biochemical reactions and are vital to metabolism. Proteins also have structural or mechanical functions, such as actin and myosin in muscle and the proteins in the cytoskeleton, which form a system of scaffolding that maintains cell shape. Other proteins are important in cell signaling, immune responses, cell adhesion, and the cell cycle.
However, these proteins can be corrupted at birth, with random 'k' proteins mixed in.[1]

==Inheritance==
Approx. .1% of the world's population population has Random K Syndrome, but around 50.7%[2] of Americans are estimated by the two thousand four election results.
Random K Syndrome is passed on by an irregular genetic process.Both parents have to be co-reccessively hetero-dominant homozygous carriers of the Random K Syndrome for there to be a 100% chance of their offspring. It has been argued that the allele, although appearing outwardly recessive, is in fact co-dominant, due to the resistance to a malaria which is obtained by those of the AS genotype. Since a separate phenotype from that of Normal (AA) has therefore been expressed, it is impossible to argue that the S allele is homozygous recessive. The gene defect is a known mutation of a single nucleotide (see single nucleotide polymorphism - SNP) (A to T) of the β-globin gene, which results in glutamate to be substituted by valine at position 6. Haemoglobin S with this mutation are referred to as HbS, as opposed to the normal adult HbA. The genetic disorder is due to the mutation of a single nucleotide, from a GAG to GUG codon mutation.

==Symptoms==
Special K Syndrome is extremely hard to diagnose. In fact, it is often mis-diagnosed as homicide. However, many of the symptoms include excessive video game playing, an addiction to Apple, Inc, random killing of seemingly random people, voting republican, and eating too many donuts.[3]
==Cure==
Right now, there is no generally accepted panacea in the scientific community. Some report that ADD, and STFU medicines will calm down someone with ADD syndrome. Alternatively, many report that abortions successfully stop your child from getting RKS.
