Mutation hereditary

Gene mutations occur in two ways they can be inherited from a parent or acquired during a person s lifetime. Mutations that are passed from parent to child are called hereditary mutations or germline mutations (because they are present in the egg and sperm cells, which are also called germ cells). This type of mutation is present throughout a person s life in virtually every cell in the body. [Pg.22]

Germline mutation A gene change in the body s reproductive cells (egg or sperm) that becomes incorporated into the DNA of every cell in the body of offspring germline mutations are passed on from parents to offspring. Also called hereditary mutation. [NIH]... [Pg.67]

A fuller understanding of the Fas-FasL interaction is necessary to comprehend better the signaling pathway involved in death receptor-induced apoptosis. Inappropriate expression of Fas and FasL on lymphocytes and other immune cells has previously been documented in patients with HIV infection it has also been implicated in the loss of lymphocytes that characterizes this immunodeficiency syndrome [32]. Conversely, hereditary mutations in the death domain of the Fas gene are known to cause an autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome in humans [33]. [Pg.149]

There are over 30 types of casein confirmed when the subclass and hereditary mutations are added. Generally, it can be divided into a-, P-, K-, y-casein. The product on the market is cream- or lemon-colored, but the pure form is white. The molecular weight is 13,000-25,000, and the isoelectric point is pH 4.6. For casein, the hydrophilicity is smallest at the isoelectric point and has the properties of having minimal bonding strength with ions. Using these properties, the coagulated casein is made. [Pg.1498]
