Centronuclear myopathy is a genetic disorder primarily affecting Labrador Retrievers caused by a mutation in the HACD1 gene. It causes defects in muscle tone and control. The disease is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, meaning both parents must be carriers for their offspring to develop the condition.
