The purpose of this study is to describe recessive alleles in strictly dominant genes. Identifying recessive mutations in genes for which only dominant disease or risk alleles have been reported can ...

Your genes are made of DNA. This DNA provides instructions, which determines traits like your hair color and blood type. There are different versions of genes. Each ...

Humans carry an average of one to two mutations per person that can cause severe genetic disorders or prenatal death when two copies of the same mutation are inherited, according to new estimates. The ...

In general, humans have the same genes. A number of genes are varied. These control our physical traits and health. Each variation is called an allele. You inherit two alleles for each gene. One comes ...
