If a mother is heterozygous for a particular sex-linked gene, her son has a 50% chance of inheriting either allele from her. |
We sequenced genomic DNA from heterozygous animals in an attempt to identify the remaining mutations. |
This method magnifies the effect of heterozygous mutations on the posterior phenotypes, thus identifying even lethal genes involved in the targeted process. |
In addition, researchers studied persons with diabetes, obesity, individuals heterozygous for phenylketonuria, and lactating women. |
All families harbored compound heterozygous mutations, most commonly a truncating mutation combined with a missense mutation. |
Animals developed as perfectly normal hermaphrodites if derived from a heterozygous hermaphrodite mother. |
