Question 1

True or False: "Gain of function" mutations are generally dominant because one copy in a diploid organism is sufficient to alter the normal phenotype.
◦ true
◦ false

Question 2

True or False: Assume that a mutation occurs in the gene responsible for the production of hexosaminidase A, such that only about 50 percent of the enzyme activity is found in the heterozygote compared with a homozygous normal individual. If heterozygotes are phenotypically normal, we would say that the mutant allele is recessive to its normal allele.

◦ false

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.
