What is the frequency of the mutation genetic disease of the huntington disease?
Hungtington disease is a trinucleotide repeat genetic disorder, in which you have extra repeats of CAG in your gene coding for the hungtin protein. If you have more than 35 repeats you get the phenotype (symptoms), and it shows anticipation, which means that as the disease is passed on from generation to generation the repeats increase, hence the severity of the disease. It is quite rare, but the exact incidence is hard to estimate, because people carrying 30 repeats are asymptomatic. Hope this helps
