Stuttering alleles

Lastly, it is now known that some genetically inherited diseases have more severe symptoms each succeeding generation due to segments of the defective genes being doubled in their transmission to children. These are referred to as stuttering alleles or unstable alleles. Examples of this phenomenon are Huntington’s disease, fragile-X syndrome, and the myotonic form of muscular dystrophy. Mendel believed that all units of inheritance are passed on to offspring unchanged. Unstable alleles are an important exception to this rule.
