Imagine that you are part of a research team interested in determining the penetrance of a different PRSS1 mutation, Ala16Val. Your team has identified 120 individuals with the PRSS1 Ala16Val allele and found that 48 of the individuals did not display any evidence of pancreatitis.From your data, what is the penetrance of the PRSS1 Ala16Val mutation?
