Huntington disease is governed by autosomal dominant inheritance. What is the likelihood that a person who has one heterozygous affected parent and one normal parent will develop the disease? a) 50% b) 75% c) 0% (impossible) d) 100% (certain)
Answer: a) 50 % Because a child receives one gene from each parent. The heterozygous affected parent has one normal gene and one affected gene. This parent must give one of the two to his/her child, therefore, the probability is 50%.

A 25 year old man has HUNTINGTON DISEASE. Is it possible for him to father a normal son?

If the mother of the son is normal? Or if the mother of the son has Huntington disease? Explain why for both.
Answer: Yes. We will assume the man is nor homozygous for the mutation, since this would be rare (especially in the US). This means that his other copy of the gene is normal. He has a 50% chance of passing the bad gene on and a 50% chance of passing the normal gene, if the mother is "normal." It only takes one copy of the bad gene to get Huntington disease. Gender of parent and child is irrelevant to the outcome of inheritance of Huntington disease. The 50% chance is with each conception, without regard to the genetic status of other children. If the mother is also heterozygous with one normal gene and one bad gene, then the child has a 75% chance of getting the disease. This text box won't support a grid without formatting problems, so I will try to do this as regular text. The "H" is the bad gene and the "h" is normal. Remember that the child only needs one H to get Huntington's Disease. If the mother has 2 normal genes (hh) and the Dad has one bad gene (Hh) (and we know each parent will give one gene) the possible outcomes are Hh, Hh, hh, or hh. 50% of those (the Hh combination) have Huntington disease. If the mother and father both have 1 bad Huntington gene, they are both Hh, Hh. The potential outcomes for the children are Hh, HH, Hh, and hh. There is a 75% chance (either the Hh or HH combination) of the child having Huntington's. If the child gets hh, they are free of Huntington's as are their future offsrping.

Can restriction enzymes be used to treat HUNTINGTON DISEASE?

If you have a, lets say, a 60bp (GTCx20) restriction enzyme, which will cut out 20 triplet codons CAG (Huntington disease), will the person be cured if given to all cells? In huntington the tripket repeats are over 45 maybe more, so the idea was cutting out 20 or more and leave enough for proper functioning of protein. I am not sure if there are other genes that has this many repeats of CAG.
Answer: Sure it WOULD work if there were means to deliver it to each cell, ensure 100% restriction efficiency & specificity, and ligate the DNA nick afterwards. So far it is sci-fi; prenatal diagnostics is the way to go for now.

How does trinucleotide repeat mutation cause the symptoms in HUNTINGTON DISEASE?

Any help or info about it would be greatly appreciated. Please do not copy or paste a lot of Wikipedia stuff. thank you.
Answer: Trinucleotide repeat disorders that is a genetic malfunction essentially. It is when the trinucleotide repeats in certain genes exceeding the normal, stable, threshold, which differs per gene. The mutation repeats itself. If the repeat is present in a healthy gene, a dynamic mutation may increase the repeat count and result in a defective gene. Huntington’s disease (HD) and the spinocerebellar ataxias (and this is a a group of genetic disorders characterized by slowly progressive loss of coordination when you walk and often associated with poor coordination of hands, speech, and eye movements which you see in Huntingtons) that are caused by a repeat expansion in protein-coding portions of specific genes.

Answer: Huntingtons Disease Also Included In: Alzheimer's / Dementia; Parkinson's Disease Article Date: 03 Jun 2011 - 0:00 PDT Medical researchers may have uncovered a novel approach to treat an incurable and ultimately fatal neurodegenerative disease that affects hundreds of thousands of people. Two international studies, one led by the University of Leicester, and the other a collaboration with Leicester led by scientists in the USA, hold out promise for slowing down the development of Huntington's disease - and potentially, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. The research, which is in its early stages, represents an important milestone in understanding these debilitating conditions. Huntington's disease is a devastating inherited neurodegenerative disorder that is always fatal. The disorder of the central nervous system causes progressive degeneration of cells in the brain, slowly impairing a person's ability to walk, think, talk and reason. Approximately 1 in 10,000 individuals are affected worldwide. In the world-famous Department of Genetics at Leicester, the groups of Dr Flaviano Giorgini and Prof Charalambos Kyriacou found that by genetically targeting a particular enzyme in fruit-flies, kynurenine 3-monooxygenase or KMO, they arrested the development of the neurodegeneration associated with Huntington's disease. Furthermore by directly manipulating metabolites in the KMO cellular pathway with drugs, they could manipulate the symptoms that the flies displayed. The fruit-fly study, to be published in Current Biology on 7 June, was also aided by the groups of Prof Robert Schwarcz (Maryland Psychiatric Research Center, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore), who pioneered work in this area, and Dr Paul Muchowski (Gladstone Institutes, University of California, San Francisco). The two latter workers and Dr Giorgini have simultaneously published a paper in Cell, announcing a similar breakthrough in understanding the therapeutic relevance of KMO in transgenic mouse models of Huntington's and Alzheimer's diseases. The fruit-fly research at Leicester took place over three years and was funded by the Huntington's Disease Association and the CHDI Foundation, Inc. Dr Giorgini, who led the UK study, states, "This work provides the first genetic and pharmacological evidence that inhibition of a particular enzyme - KMO - is protective in an animal model of this disease, and we have also found that targeting other points in this cellular pathway can improve Huntington's disease symptoms in fruit flies. This breakthrough is important as no drugs currently exist that halt progression or delay onset of Huntington's disease. We are tremendously excited about these studies, as we hope that they will have direct ramifications for Huntington's disease patients. Our work combined with the study in our companion publication in Cell, provides important confirmation of KMO inhibition as a potential therapeutic strategy for these individuals. As many KMO inhibitors are available, and more are being developed, it is hoped that such compounds can ultimately be tested in clinical trials for this as well as other neurodegenerative disorders." In Leicester the experiments were carried out by Drs Susanna Campesan, Edward Green, and Carlo Breda and in Baltimore, by Dr Korrapati Sathyasaikumar. The collaborating teams will continue their studies aimed at enhancing the development of medical intervention in Huntington's and other neurodegenerative disorders. Cath Stanley, Chief Executive of the Huntington's Disease Association, said: "This is an exciting piece of research that will offer hope to the many people affected by Huntington's disease."

HUNTINGTON DISEASE?

For my genetics class we have to give a presentation on different genetic disorders. My topic is Huntington disease. Is the type of mutation that causes HD considered an expansion mutation????? Also, does anyone know a website that explains SIMPLY the mechanism of action of the normal protein and how its disrupted by the defect in the disease??? HELP!
Answer: Is the type of mutation that causes HD considered an expansion mutation? Yes. The gene involved in Huntington's disease is located on the short arm of chromosome 4. In the first part (5'end) of the HD gene, there is a sequence of three DNA bases, cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG), that is repeated multiple times (i.e. ...CAGCAGCAGCAG...); this is called a trinucleotide repeat. CAG is the genetic code for the amino acid glutamine, thus a series of CAG forms a chain of glutamine known as polyglutamine or (polyQ). A polyQ length of less than 36 glutamines, produces a cytoplasmic protein called huntingtin protein (Htt), whereas a sequence of 40 or more produces an erroneous form of Htt, mHtt (standing for mutant Htt). Also, does anyone know a website that explains SIMPLY the mechanism of action of the normal protein and how its disrupted by the defect in the disease? Sorry, but it isn't a well-understoon protein. Like all proteins, Htt and mHtt are translated, perform or affect biological functioning, and are finally cleared up in a process called degradation. The exact mechanism in which mHtt causes or affects the biological processes of DNA replication and programmed cell death (apoptosis) remains unclear, so research is divided into identifying the functioning of Htt, how mHtt differs or interferes with it, and the effects of remnants of the protein (known as aggregates) left after degradation. This is the best description I've found, but it is quite long: http://www.stanford.edu/group/hopes/causes/huntprot/p1.html

HUNTINGTON DISEASE?

how is Huntington disease tranmitted genetically what are the gene called basically?
Answer: American doctor George Huntington first described the disorder in 1872. Huntington's disease is a disorder passed down through families in which nerve cells in the brain waste away, or degenerate. Huntington's disease is caused by a genetic defect on chromosome #4. The defect causes a part of DNA, called a CAG repeat, to occur many more times than it is supposed to. Normally, this section of DNA is repeated 10 to 35 times. But in persons with Huntington's disease, it is repeated 36 to 120 times. As the gene is passed on from one generation to the next, the number of repeats - called a CAG repeat expansion - tend to get larger. The larger the number of repeats, the greater your chance of developing symptoms at an earlier age.

Answer: Huntington's is a familial disease--If either of your parents carry the HD gene you have a 50/50 chance of inheriting the disease. If you do not inherit the gene the disease stops there/your not going to pass it to your kids unless you inherited the gene. A blood test is used to check the DNA for the mutation. I read an article in national Institute of Neurological Disorders and it appears there are procedures that can be done in uterine to isolate the gene.
