Initially, we might think that the genetics of inherited diseases is simple. We have decoded the genome. We have the technology to find the errors that lead to inherited diseases. What's the problem? Looking at a few examples, we will quickly see that our new molecular knowledge and ...
Genetic disorders can be classified according to the way in which they develop. If the disorder is transmitted by genes inherited from only one parent, it is said to be an autosomal dominant disorder. The term autosome applies to any of the 22 chromosomes that are identical in human males an...
Human disease - Genetic, Inherited, Congenital: Certain human diseases result from mutations in the genetic complement (genome) contained in the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of chromosomes. A gene is a discrete linear sequence of nucleotide bases (molecul
Human genetic disease is any of the diseases and disorders that are caused by mutations in one or more genes of the human genome.
The examples of these diseases have listed below. Pearson syndrome Kearns-Sayre syndrome (KSS) Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) Myoclonic epilepsy and ragged-red fibers (MERRF) Maternally-inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD) Neuropathy, ataxia, and retinitis pigmentosa (NARP) ...
Some inherited characteristics result in genetic disorders. A mutation in a single gene can cause cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia and Huntington's disease, among others. Other disorders are due to the interaction of several different genes and can cause an individual to be susceptible to many...
Genetic studies on inherited diseases presenting with unusual ENT problemsSandeep Uppal
000 known single-gene disorders, which occur in about 1 out of every 200 births. Some examples arecystic fibrosis, sickle cellanemia, Marfan syndrome, Huntington's disease, and hemochromatosis. Single-gene disorders are inherited in recognizable patterns:autosomal dominant,autosomal recessive, and X-...
