Viscera Characteristics of MSTN-Edited Heterozygous Pigs
Myostatin (MSTN) is a protein that negatively regulates growth of skeletal muscle, and inactivation of MSTN improves the mass of skeletal muscle. Our previous work found that MSTN+/− pigs have higher muscle depth and lower fat depth compared to wild type

Keeping Track of the Genealogy of Heterozygotes Using Epigenetic Reference Codes and Breeding Tables
Studying neurobehavioral consequences of the hypofunctional dopamine transporter (DAT) across several generations entails the need to monitor allelic transmission to offspring, taking into account both maternal and paternal inheritance.

Olfaction in Parkin heterozygotes and compound heterozygotes [PDF]
While Parkinson disease (PD) is consistently associated with impaired olfaction, one study reported better olfaction among Parkin mutation carriers than noncarriers. Whether olfaction differs between Parkin mutation heterozygotes and carriers of 2 Parkin mutations (compound heterozygotes) is unknown.To assess the relationship between Parkin genotype ...

Case report: A novel WASHC5 variant altering mRNA splicing causes spastic paraplegia in a patient
Background: Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a progressive upper-motor neurodegenerative disease. Mutations in the WASHC5 gene are associated with autosomal dominant HSP, spastic paraplegia 8 (SPG8).

We analyzed findings in a same-gender couple discordant in their human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) status. The HIV+ partner was homozygous for CCR5 while his receptive HIV- partner was a CCR5Δ32 heterozygote with a C20S missense mutation in his CCR5 ...

HETEROZYGOTES FOR ATYPICAL CHOLINESTERASE
Three hundred and thirty-two patients undergoing electroconvulsive therapy received thiopentone and suxamethonium. In 31 the duration of the apnoea was greater than an assumed upper limit of normal of 240 s. Eight of these patients proved, on biochemical grounds, to be heterozygotes for the atypical gene. The reason why the heterozygous state is rarely
