Sickle-cell disease is caused by a mutation that produces an abnormal protein. The gene for sickle-cell disease causes a person's red blood cells to be shaped like a sickle instead of being round and flat. Sickle-shaped red blood cells do not carry oxygen very well, which causes health problems and lowers survival rate. However, in areas where malaria is common, people that have the sickle-cell gene are protected from malaria. The malaria parasite relies on normal red blood cells to grow, and cannot easily complete its life cycle in sickle-shaped cells.
