In genetic counseling, it is difficult to directly test if an individual has a recessive allele that is associated with an inherited disease. However, the individual many be tested for the marker that is located at a known distance from the disease gene. It is often possible to calculate the probability that the individual possesses the disease allele. presence of a particular DNA One recessive mutation in human chromosome 12 can cause a rare disease that leads to death within the first year. This is located approximately 20 cM from the centromere. A RFLP marker is identified to gene Father Mother Sister Sister2 Sister3 Mary RFLPS be as close as 8cM to this lethal The RFLP gene.
