Carrier X-linked Severe Combined Immunodeficiency
Based on your genetics, your genetic predisposition for X-linked Severe Combined Immunodeficiency is
What does this mean?
Your genotype indicates that you do not carry the genetic mutation of X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency.
How Is Your Genetic Risk Calculated?
This result is based on the SNPs(single nucleotide polymorphism)that are associated with X-linked Severe Combined Immunodeficiency.
Possible Inheritance Modes for X-linked Severe Combined Immunodeficiency
There is one inheritance mode of X-linked Severe Combined Immunodeficiency. Inheritance mode is how a gene will be passed down from parent to offspring.
X Recessive
X-linked recessive disorders are also caused by mutations in genes on the X chromosome. In males (who have only one X chromosome), one altered copy of the gene in each cell is sufficient to cause the condition. In females (who have two X chromosomes), a mutation would have to occur in both copies of the gene to cause the disorder. Because it is unlikely that females will have two altered copies of this gene, males are affected by X-linked recessive disorders much more frequently than females.
