1 Only a few human diseases are triggered by a single gene working by itself. 2  In most cases, a disease results from the actions of many genes. 3  An example of a single-gene disorder is Huntington's disease, which was discussed in the last chapter. 4  One error in one gene leads to the fatal health problems of HD.
