The mutations found in the HD allele result in a
protein that has
normal activity.
The pattern of inheritance of Huntington disease
indicates that the HD disease allele is
to the normal (HD") allele.
If a mother is heterozygous for the normal and disease-
causing HD alleles and a father is homozygous for the
normal allele, it is
all their children will
have Huntington disease.
Offspring of individuals that have only one parent with
the mutant HD alleie have a
chance
of having Huntington disease.
