Segregation analysis favors a gene additive on liability with a frequency of 0.022, which is nearly recessive on the penetrance scale. Less than one-eighth of DR3 and DR7 haplotypes carry a determinant for coeliac disease. There is significant excess of DR3/7 heterozygotes among patients, indicating
Copper incorporation studies were performed on individuals from 58 pedigrees, comprising 140 sibships. As previously reported, there is considerable overlap between heterozygotes and normal homozygotes. Segregation analysis supports recessive inheritance of disease, with residual heritability for @C
