The Pleiotropy Problem for Evolution

They usually act locally to alter cellular physiology by binding to cell surface receptors in order to activate certain genes. The effects of cytokines are redundant (meaning ...

Alzheimer`s and Genetics
... An individual who carries one of the mutated genes has a 50 percent chance of passing it on to his or her children. Those who inherit the mutated gene will almost certainly develop Alzheimer’s. Members of the family who do not inherit the mutation are no more likely to get the disease than are othe ...
