Celiac Disease is a mutation of the HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 alleles

no it isn't it is genetic, you inherit it
Celiac disease is primarily associated with specific genetic variations in the HLA-DQ genes, particularly HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8, rather than being caused by a point mutation or frameshift mutation. These variations are typically due to small insertions or deletions that can alter the amino acid sequence, but the disease is more strongly linked to these haplotypes than to a single mutation type. Therefore, while mutations can play a role in the genetic predisposition to celiac disease, it's not accurately characterized solely as a point or frameshift mutation.
Celiac disease is a very contagous disease and can be fatal it i caused by many things - tommyFarnum unfortunatly tommy is wrong, celiac disease is not contageous! a likley cause is a genetic mutation due to either environmental toxins or hergayeditory links.
No, it is autosomal, with the likely gene mutation located on the short arm of chromosome 6.
Celiac's Disease.
If you have celiac disease then it will damage your small intestine.
A mutation is a permanent change in the DNA sequence of a gene. It may be a minor or a major change; and may be harmful or beneficial.RegardsTime is imaginary
Of course!... Celiac Disease does not interfear with having a child. It just means that your child might have celiac disease.
Celiac disease may also be called sprue, nontropical sprue, gluten sensitive enteropathy, celiac sprue, and adult celiac disease.
I have celiac's disease. I was diagnosed july 16, 2010. I am not sure how i got it, all i know is that my mother carried the genes for celiac's disease. My father also gave blood and he found out he has celiac's disease too.
advertisements DO NOT affect people with celiac disease!!
