Is cysticfibrosis dominant or recessive?
cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder which is reccesively inherited.A good way to remember this is to picture the disease as a disorder located on a dominant allele: every person with the gene would have the disease. Because of the severity of the disease, few of the people who suffered from it would reproduce, and it would be extremely rare. (Remember that there is no cure, and before newer techniques in medicine could prolong their lives, people with the disease only lived till approximately 5 years old).The way it is, people can be carriers of the gene without having the disease, and thus pass it on if both parents are carriers.

This way it will be possible to change your genetic make up. Alternately you can take the way HIV incorporate to it self into your DNA. This is a RNA virus. It gets translated into DNA, with the help of reverse transcriptase enzyme. Then with the help of integrase enzyme it enters into your chromosomes. Scientists may be able to fallow the same path. For this you have to translate the gene into RNA first and then to fallow the path taken by HIV infection. This looks very simple. But is not simple at all. But this may become simple with the advent of technology. So you will be able to get the color of your skin, eyes or your height as you want. It will be difficult to handle the technology and the consequences can not be guessed.
