  2. Prevention of autosomal recessive disorders - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prevention_of_autosomal...

    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 .

  4. CARASIL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CARASIL

    CARASIL is an autosomal recessive disease, meaning that both parents must be a carrier for the allele in order for the disease to be passed on to the child. [11] As with other autosomal recessive diseases, the likelihood of receiving a recessive allele from both parents increases if the parents are closely related to each other (consanguineous).

  5. Antley–Bixler syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antley–Bixler_syndrome

    Antley–Bixler syndrome is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, which means the defective gene is located on an autosome, and two copies of the gene (one inherited from each parent) are required to be born with the disorder. The parents of an individual with an autosomal recessive disorder both carry one copy of the defective gene but ...

  6. Reticular dysgenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reticular_dysgenesis

    Reticular dysgenesis (RD) is a rare, inherited autosomal recessive disease that results in immunodeficiency. [1] Individuals with RD have mutations in both copies of the AK2 gene. [1] Mutations in this gene lead to absence of AK2 protein. [2] AK2 protein allows hematopoietic stem cells to differentiate and proliferate. [2]

  7. Griscelli syndrome type 2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Griscelli_syndrome_type_2

    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 .

  8. Giant axonal neuropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_axonal_neuropathy

    This disease is an autosomal recessive disorder, which means the defective gene is located on an autosome, and both parents must have one copy of the defective gene in order to have a child born with the disorder. The parents of a child with an autosomal recessive disorder are carriers, but are usually not affected by the disorder. [citation ...

  9. Baller–Gerold syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baller–Gerold_syndrome

    Baller–Gerold syndrome is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance, meaning that an affected child gets one mutant allele from each parent to produce the syndrome. [2] A carrier is someone who has one mutant allele but does not does have any symptoms. If both parents are carriers, there is a 25% chance the child will have BGS.
