Why a lethal dominant genetic disease persists in the gene pool?
That depends on what you mean by lethal. If you mean e.g. the gene for Huntington's disease than this is because the carrier is likely to pass on their genes before death as it only manifests later on in life. Unless the gene causes the carrier to die before they reproduce - it will stay in the gene pool. Would you kill someone because they had a genetic disorder or not let them reproduce?

What is it called when you inherited kidney disease?

Why is genotyping important for understanding genetic variations and their impact on health and disease?
Genotyping is important for understanding genetic variations and their impact on health and disease because it allows researchers to identify specific genetic markers associated with certain conditions. By analyzing an individual's genetic makeup, genotyping can help predict disease risk, personalize treatment plans, and advance precision medicine efforts.
Is the disease genetic?
Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy (FAN) or Corino de Andrade's disease, a form of Paramyloidosis, is a neurodegenerative autosomal dominant genetically transmitted disease, first identified and described by Portuguese neurologist Mário Corino da Costa Andrade, in the 1950s. It is a fatal and incurable disease. <><><><> In addition, Huntington's Disease and Sickle Cell Anemia are both genetically transmitted ailments.
