👉 Heterotaxia is a medical condition in which two or more different cells from different organisms have been genetically modified to produce identical proteins. This can cause problems with protein synthesis and lead to diseases such as sickle cell anemia, sickle cell disease, and Tay-Sachs disease. The term "heterotaxia" was coined by biologist Robert J. Pomeroy in 1945 to describe this condition.
