Genome Biology | Full Text | A Second Gene For Color Blindness Total color blindness, or achromatopsia, is a rare inherited disorder whose genomics to isolate a genetic factor in the development of achromatopsia. http://genomebiology.com/2000/1/5/reports/0074
Extractions: Analysis of families suffering from total color blindness has revealed one potential cause of the condition - mutations in a gene encoding a subunit of the retinal cone cGMP-gated ion channel. Mutations in the gene encoding the beta-subunit of the cone photoreceptor cGMP-gated channel are responsible for achromatopsia ( ) linked to chromosome 8q21.

How Do People Inherit Colorblindness? How Often? For reasons having to do with the genetic coding of color vision, Achromatopsiais a form of colorblindness characterized by the total loss of all color http://webexhibits.org/causesofcolor/2C.html
Extractions: (no cones) Most kinds of congenital colorblindness are caused by defects in the X chromosome. Since females have two X chromosomes and males have an X chromosome and a Y chromosome, colorblindness is much more common in males: females must have defects in both chromosomes before they exhibit colorblindness. A female with the colorblindness defect in one X chromosome is a carrier of colorblindness. Male children of a female carrier are as likely to be colorblind as male children of a male with colorblindness, and male children of a male with colorblindness and a female carrier are extremely likely to be colorblind. Approximately 5% to 8% of the men and 0.5% of the women of the world are born colorblind. That's as high as one out of twelve men and one out of two hundred women. People who are protans (red weak) and deutans (green weak) comprise 99% of this group. Molecular genetics
