How can you use “disease-causative” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Two of the patients in which we found disease-causative mutations have affected brothers, three in addition to patient 01, have potential carrier sisters, and all six have mothers who could also be carriers.
When a likely disease-causative mutation was found in each of these patients, no further fragments were sequenced for that patient.
Patient 01 and his carrier sister were shown to have a C->T substitution in exon 39 bp5762, predicting a nonsense mutation Gln->Stop, leading to a likely disease-causative truncation of the protein (Table 2and Figure 1).
Details of the reagent costs per patient calculations are attached as Additional file A. Briefly, we assumed that likely disease-causative mutations would be found, on average, within approximately 43 fragments.
Patient 07 has a C->T substitution in exon 23 at bp 3359 predicting a nonsense mutation Arg->Stop, leading to a likely disease-causative truncation of the protein.
