Autosomal recessive

AD = autosomal dominant AR = autosomal recessive X-LR = sex-linked recessive. 

Reported to be inherited both as autosomal recessive and as autosomal dominant. 

Congenital deficiency of prothrombin is inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion and is the rarest of all the hereditary coagulation disorders. Congenital dysprothrombinemia has also been recognized. 

Hereditary deficiency of Factor V is a rare autosomal recessive disorder. Combined deficiencies of Factors V and VIII have been identified in several families. 

Deficiency of Factor VII is relatively rare and inherited as an autosomal recessive disorder. Deficiency of Factor VII has been reported to be associated with bond abnormal bleeding and thrombotic tendencies. Deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary emboli have been reported in affected individuals. There is a very high frequency of Factor VII deficiency in people with the Dubin-Johnson syndrome, which is a congenital disorder of Hver function. 

Deficiency of the VIIFC portion of the Factor VIII complex results in classic hemophilia or hemophilia A and is inherited as a sex-linked recessive disorder. Based on the degree of deficiency of the VIIFC molecule three different forms of hemophilia A are recognized. Less than 1% VIIFC activity equals severe hemophilia A. Two to 10% of normal VIIFC activity equals moderately severe hemophilia A. Ten to 25% of normal VIIFC activity equals minimal symptomatic disease. Deficiency of the VIIFvWFAg portion of the Factor VIII complex results in von WiUebrand disease. There are at present five principal types of von WiUebrand disease and numerous subtypes or variants. For the most part, von WiUebrand disease is inherited as an autosomal dominant, and a few subtypes may be inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. 

Congenital deficiency of Factor XI is a relatively rare coagulopathy that has been reported as both an autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive trait. This deficiency state occurs predominantly in the Jewish population. Most patients with this deficiency state remain asymptomatic until trauma or surgery is encountered. Spontaneous hemorrhage is rare in this population. 

Congenital deficiency of Factor XII is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. Deficiency of this factor is rarely associated with any coagulopathy. It has been observed that people deficient in this factor may have an increased frequency of thromboembolic compHcations. 

Congenital deficiency of Factor Xlll is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait and is frequendy recognized at birth because of delayed persistent hemorrhage from the umbiUcus. In Factor Xlll-deficient people wound healing is defective and wound dehiscence is common. 

Glucose/galactose malabsotption (GGM) is an intestinal monosaccharide (glucose and galactose) transport deficiency. The disorder manifests itself within the first weeks of life. The severe diarrhea and dehydration are usually fatal unless glucose and galactose are eliminated from the diet. Fiuctose and xylose are absorbed normally. Occurrence in both males and females, familial incidence, in particular in parental consanguinity, indicate autosomal recessive inheritance of...

Parkin is a ubiquitin ligase encoded by a gene affected in autosomal recessive juvenile parkinsonism (AR-JP). This gene is located on chromosome 6 and encodes a protein of 465 amino acid residues with moderate similarity to ubiquitin at the amino terminus and a RING-finger motif at the carboxy terminus. 

As the ubiquitin proteasome pathway is a main route for protein clearance it is not surprising that in protein-opathies (disease caused by aggregate prone proteins) like sporadic Parkinson- or Huntington disease proteasome activity is reduced. Autosomal recessive loss of function of the E3 ligase parkin is the molecular base for one of the most common forms of familial Parkinson disease. 

The inherited diseases of muscle in adults are highly variable. They may be X-linked, autosomal dominant, or autosomal recessive. They may result from germline mosaicism, from a genetically determined predisposition, or from an abnormality in mitochondrial DNA. As a result, these diseases are also variable in age of onset, in the severity of expression of disease, and in the management of the disease.

Genetic transmission in nemaline myopathy is the subject of some uncertainty. A Japanese study of 50 pedigrees came to the conclusion that autosomal dominant with reduced penetrance was the most probable mode. However a Finnish study presented evidence for autosomal recessive transmission. There is no evidence that severe and mild forms are genetically distinct and several pedigrees contain members showing widely differing clinical severity. A candidate gene for autosomal dominant nemaline myopathy has been localized to chromosome Iq 21—23. 

Fatal infantile cytochrome c oxidase (CCO) deficiency is characterized by total absence of catalytic activity in skeletal muscle. This often occurs within the context of the Fanconi syndrome, or less commonly in association with a cardiomyopathy. Although the deficiency is global in skeletal muscle, with all fibers affected, only isolated scattered fibers show abnormal aggregations of mitochondria (ragged-red fibers). Multiple affected siblings within one family are frequently encountered and suggest autosomal recessive inheritance. The condition normally proves fatal before the age of six months and is characterized by worsening intractable lactic acidemia. 

All three forms of spinal muscular atrophy are inherited as autosomal recessive disorders, linked to chromosome 5q. Prenatal diagnosis using closely linked markers is now available. A rare, autosomal dominant form of juvenile SMA is similar in expression to the recessive forms, but 5q is not involved.
