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 .
Autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive inheritance, the two most common Mendelian inheritance patterns. An autosome is any chromosome other than a sex chromosome.. In genetics, dominance is the phenomenon of one variant of a gene on a chromosome masking or overriding the effect of a different variant of the same gene on the other copy of the chromosome.
Autosomal recessive inheritance, a 25% chance, and (purple) a 50% carrier chance. Autosomal recessive traits is one pattern of inheritance for a trait, disease, or disorder to be passed on through families. For a recessive trait or disease to be displayed two copies of the trait or disorder needs to be presented.
Wiedemann–Rautenstrauch (WR) syndrome (German pronunciation: [ˈviːdəman ˈʁaʊtn̩ʃtʁaʊx]), also known as neonatal progeroid syndrome, [1] is a rare autosomal recessive progeroid syndrome. There have been over 30 cases of WR. [2] WR is associated with abnormalities in bone maturation, and lipids and hormone metabolism. [3]
In most of the families reported so far, tetra-amelia syndrome appears to have an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This means the defective gene responsible for the disorder is located on an autosome , and two copies of the defective gene (one inherited from each parent) are required in order to be born with the disorder.
3C syndrome is an autosomal recessive disease, caused by a mutation on the long arm of chromosome 8 at 8q24.13, the locus for KIAA0196, [4] the gene for the protein strumpellin. Strumpellin is highly expressed in skeletal muscle cells and mutations in it are also associated with spastic paraplegia .
Imerslund–Gräsbeck syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive, familial form of vitamin B12 deficiency caused by malfunction of the "Cubam" receptor located in the terminal ileum. This receptor is composed of two proteins, amnionless (AMN), and cubilin. A defect in either of these protein components can cause this syndrome.
