In autosomal dominant inheritance, just one defective gene can cause a condition. Key mechanisms:
Dominant Negative: Faulty protein disrupts the normal one.
Gain of Function: Mutant protein gains toxic function.
Haploinsufficiency: One copy isn’t enough for normal function.
Stay tuned for more !

Autosomal dominant IRD accounts for 25-40% of cases, posing challenges due to variable phenotypes, milder forms, and later onset. Mutations are categorized as gain-of-function, dominant-negative, or haploinsufficiency. Stay tuned as we explore these mechanisms further!
