I was just wondering this myself. My little brother recently had an anal prolapse, the trait runs on one side but he's been tested. I'm not sure if he needs more testing or if we need to look for another cause. Incomplete dominance is such a fuzzy place in genetics I have a feeling that if it's not diagnosable, he's suffering from some sort of negative genetic influence.
Sorry I couldn't help but this is such an unknown place in any of the fields that deal with genetic disease.
What else can I help you with?
Is CF X-linked or incomplete dominance?
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder, not an X-linked disorder. It means that both copies of the gene responsible for CF need to be mutated in order to develop the disorder. Incomplete dominance refers to a genetic trait where the heterozygous condition results in an intermediate phenotype, which is not the case for CF.
What is the sequence of amino acid in cystic fibrosis?
The sequence of amino acids in cystic fibrosis is caused by a mutation in the CFTR gene, which leads to the production of a faulty cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein. This mutated protein results in abnormal function, leading to the characteristic symptoms of cystic fibrosis such as thick mucus production.
What is the probability of a child having cystic fibrosis if one of her parents was homozygous dominant and the other was a carrier for cystic fibrosis?
Assuming that each parent is a carrier for cystic fibrosis (has the genotype Ff), the probability that their second child will develop cystic fibrosis is one fourth. The probability doesn't change with the number of children they have. For each pregnancy, the chance that the child will have cystic fibrosis (have the genotype ff) is exactly the same.
Name two genetic disorders?
Two genetic disorders are Turner's syndrome and cystic fibrosis.
How does cystic fibrosis effect the cell membrane?
Cystic fibrosis is caused by defective CFTR protein. CFTR is an ion channel that transports chloride ions across epithelial cell membranes.

How do you start a topic sentence if its about Cystic fibrosis?
What is cystic fibrosis? Cystic fibrosis is a life threatening disease.
What is the most common fatal genetic disease in the United states?

What is the abnormal protein in cystic fibrosis called?
The abnormal protein in cystic fibrosis is called cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). This protein functions as a chloride channel in epithelial cells, and mutations in the CFTR gene lead to dysfunctional chloride transport. This results in the thick, sticky mucus characteristic of cystic fibrosis, affecting various organs, particularly the lungs and digestive system.
