Gene

The functional and physical unit of heredity passed from parent to offspring. Genes are pieces of DNA, and most genes contain the information for making a specific protein.

In CMT, mutations in genes are what cause CMT. Because these are inheritable, that is, they can be passed from parent to child, CMT is inheritable.
