Description: The two genes that produce red and green light-sensitive proteins are located on the X chromosome. Mutations in these genes can cause color blindness. Color blindness is a common inherited sex-linked disorder that affects a person's ability to see or recognize certain colors.Eight to ten percent of all males and one half of a percent of all females are color-blind.Keywords: sensitive proteins,chromosome mutations,color blindness,chromosome x,x chromosome,sex linked disorder,genes,females,colors.utations in these genes can cause color blindness.

Red Green Color Blindness. Red Green Color blindness is predominantly found only in men. The gene that leads to red green color blindness is found in the X Chromosome. Males only have one X chromosome whereas females have 2; typically in females the stronger chromosome takes precedence so they retain correct vision. The son of a woman carrying a faulty gene has a 50% chance of inheriting the faulty X chromosome and as a result â suffering from color blindness.
