Galactosemia type II (also called galactokinase deficiency) and type III (also called galactose epimerase deficiency) cause different patterns of signs and symptoms. Galactosemia type II causes fewer medical problems than the classic type. isthat good or bad? classic galactocemia is very sever, wors then the other type's of galactosemia, but, galactosemia is way wors then lactose intolerance, though

Classic galactosemia (type 1) - the most common and severe type, caused by mutations in the GALT gene, and characterized by a complete deficiency of an enzyme called galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase (GALT)

Duarte Variant Galactosemia,....... Duarte variant galactosemia, sometimes called just Duarte galactosemia or “DG,” is much more common than classic or clinical variant galactosemia in many populations

What is Galactokinase Deficiency Galactosemia? Galactokinase deficiency results from inheritance of deleterious mutations in the human GALK1 gene leading to loss of galactokinase (GALK) enzyme activity. Like patients with loss of GALT activity, patients missing GALK activity cannot fully metabolize galactose so that if they consume a diet high in lactose/galactose they will accumulate high levels of galactose and galactose metabolites including galactitol and presumably galactonate, though this metabolite is rarely measured. Unlike patients who are missing GALT activity, patients with galactokinase deficiency do not accumulate high levels of Gal-1P because GALK is the enzyme that synthesizes Gal-1P. Galactokinase deficiency is very rare in many populations and is not detected by many screening programs so that long-term follow-up studies of large numbers of patients diagnosed with galactokinase deficiency have been difficult to conduct. Because those patients with galactokinase deficiency studied were ostensibly well as infants, except for cataracts that self-resolved following dietary galactose restriction, loss of galactokinase was believed to be relatively benign regardless of diet.

What is Epimerase Deficiency Galactosemia? Epimerase deficiency results from inheritance of deleterious mutations in the human GALE gene leading to partial loss of UDP-galactose 4’-epimerase (GALE) enzyme activity. Like patients with loss of GALT or GALK activity, patients with impaired GALE activity cannot fully metabolize galactose. However, unlike patients with classic galactosemia or galactokinase deficiency, all patients with epimerase deficiency reported to date exhibit only partial loss of enzyme activity.

How do people get galactosemia? Galactosemia is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. It affects both boys and girls equally. Everyone has a pair of genes that make the GALT enzyme. ... These children inherit one non-working gene for the condition from each parent. Aug 28, 2016 uumm,.... really? i thought u were born with it

In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
Trait of an organism that can be masked by the dominant by the dominant form of a trait?
A trait that masks another trait is called dominant, or a dominant trait.
When does a recessive trait dominant over a dominant trait?
When two recessive genes are inherited, and the portion of recessive inheritance is 51% or greater in favor of the recessive trait.
A living thing that shows a dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive for the trait true or false?
False because a living thing that shows a dominant trait can not be homozygous recessive. If it is homozygous recessive it will show recessive trait. A living thing that shows dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or hetrozygous.
What is difference between a dominant trait and a recessive trait?
A recessive trait is a trait that is not shown or expressed physically but is retained within the persons genes, whereas a dominant trait is a trait which opresses the recessive trait and is prodominantly shown or expressed physically. For example it is possible for two red-haired parents, both with recessive dark haired genes, to have a dark haired child. they must both have the recessive gene or the dominant gene of red - hair will be expressed in the child

Is diabetes dominant or recessive trait?
It is a recessive trait
When does a recessive trait dominant over a dominant trait?
When two recessive genes are inherited, and the portion of recessive inheritance is 51% or greater in favor of the recessive trait.
A living thing with a dominant and recessive gene for a trait?
A living thing with a dominant and a recessive gene for a trait is heterozygous. This individual will display the dominant phenotype for that trait but may have offspring that display the recessive trait.
A living thing that shows a dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive for the trait true or false?
False because a living thing that shows a dominant trait can not be homozygous recessive. If it is homozygous recessive it will show recessive trait. A living thing that shows dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or hetrozygous.

What a recessive trait?
A recessive trait is a trait that is not dominant, and is not really seen in ones phenotype.
Not expressed when the dominant form of a trait is present?
The recessive trait isn't present when the dominant form of the trait is there. Whenever a trait is dominant trait is present it ALWAYS takes over the recessive one. the law of Dominance
Is glaucoma a dominant or recessive trait?
dominant
Is ADHD a dominant or recessive trait?
dominant
If an offspring receives a pair of trait-controllers containing both a dominant and a recessive trait what happens to the recessive trait?
The dominant trait is shown in that organism with the possibility of carrying either the dominant or recessive gene to the next generation
