To have an autosomal recessive disorder, you inherit two mutated genes, one from each parent. These disorders are usually passed on by two carriers. Their health is rarely affected, but they have one mutated gene (recessive gene) and one normal gene (dominant gene) for the condition. Examples of autosomal dominant diseases include Huntington disease, neurofibromatosis, and polycystic kidney disease.
