Intellectual Product
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in heterozygotes. In the context of medical genetics, an autosomal dominant disorder is caused when a single copy of the mutant allele is present. Males and females are affected equally, and can both transmit the disorder with a risk of 50% for each child of inheriting the mutant allele.

A rare genetic persistent combined dystonia disorder characterized by slowly progressive severe caudo-rostrally spreading generalized dystonia with prominent facial and oro-mandibular involvement leading to severe anarthria and/or aphonia, swallowing difficulties and gait disturbances. Additional manifestations include slowed horizontal saccades, subclinical epilepsy, photic myoclonus, oral hypertrophic changes (for example gingival or lingual hyperplasia) as well as delayed milestones and cognitive impairment. [from SNOMEDCT_US]
