X-linked Dominant: Incontinentia Pigmenti
Genes are inherited from our biological parents in specific ways. One of the basic patterns of inheritance of our genes is called X-linked dominant inheritance.

Sex-linked dominant
Definition
Sex-linked dominant is a rare way that a trait or disorder can be passed down through families. A single abnormal gene on the X chromosome can cause a sex-linked dominant disease.

CMTX is an X-linked dominant disease and is caused by a point mutation in the connexin-32 gene on the X chromosome.
Rett syndrome is an X-linked dominant disorder mainly caused by a mutation in the MECP2gene.
Autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, X-linked dominant, X-linked recessive, multifactorial, and mitochondrial inheritance are examples. Each mode of inheritance results in a characteristic pattern of affected and unaffected family members.
X-linked dominant - this type of disorder generally occurs in females. The ‘X' refers to one of the sex chromosomes that decide gender. The mother always provides an X, while the father provides either X (female child) or Y (male child).

Focal dermal hypoplasia is inherited in an X-linked dominant pattern. The gene associated with this condition is located on the X chromosome, which is one of the two sex chromosomes.

The exclusive involvement of females is best explained by X-linked dominant inheritance with lethality in the hemizygous males. By this hypothesis, all cases are new mutations. One instance of 2 affected half-sisters born to the same mother is known.

Incontinentia pigmenti is probably inherited as an x-linked dominant trait that is usually lethal in males.
Classically, there are vesicles and bullae on an erythematous base, arranged in a linear pattern along Blashko's lines.
Aicardi syndrome is an X-linked dominant genetic condition primarily found in females because males with the disease do not survive to birth.
It is an X-linked dominant disorder that is lethal in males. Females who receive the Rett syndrome gene (symbolized RTT) have Rett syndrome. Males who receive the RTT gene apparently die before birth.
The condition is inherited in a X-linked dominant manner

Inheritance is accomplished in an X-linked dominant fashion, with no reported male-to-male transmission.[97,98,99] Regional assignment of the locus of interest to chromosome Xq24-q27 is associated with a maximum LOD score of 5.
