Autosomal recessive pattern, showing how two unaffected carriers can have a child with the disease. Some genetic disorders are caused by having two "bad" copies of a recessive allele. When the gene is located on an autosome (as opposed to a sex chromosome), it is possible for both men and women to be carriers .
The following is a list of genetic disorders and if known, type of mutation and for the chromosome involved. Although the parlance "disease-causing gene" is common, it is the occurrence of an abnormality in the parents that causes the impairment to develop within the child.
Nager acrofacial dysostosis, also known as Nager syndrome, is a genetic disorder which displays several or all of the following characteristics: underdevelopment of the cheek and jaw area, down-sloping of the opening of the eyes, lack or absence of the lower eyelashes, kidney or stomach reflux, hammer toes, shortened soft palate, lack of development of the internal and external ear, possible ...
MUTYH-associated polyposis (also known as MYH-associated polyposis) is an autosomal recessive polyposis syndrome. [1] The disorder is caused by mutations in both alleles (genetic copies) of the DNA repair gene, MUTYH. The MUTYH gene encodes a base excision repair protein, which corrects oxidative damage to DNA.
Chr 17. Mulibrey nanism is caused by mutations of the TRIM37 gene, [2] located at human chromosome 17q22-23. [9] The disorder is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. [7] This means the defective gene responsible for the disorder is located on an autosome (chromosome 17 is an autosome), and two copies of the defective gene (one inherited from each parent) are required in order to be born ...
Triple-A syndrome or AAA syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive congenital disorder.In most cases, there is no family history of AAA syndrome. [2] The syndrome was first identified by Jeremy Allgrove and colleagues in 1978; since then just over 100 cases have been reported. [3]
This condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner Griscelli syndrome type 2 (also known as " partial albinism with immunodeficiency ") is a rare autosomal recessive syndrome characterized by variable cutenous albinism, silver colored metallic looking hair, frequent bacterial or viral infections, neutropenia , and thrombocytopenia .
