X-Linked Recessive Disorder
Md. Tangigul HaqueReg. No. : 2011433023
• Passed down through families through one of the X chromosomes• If only one gene in the pair is abnormal, the disease does not occur
or it is mild• Someone who has one abnormal gene is called a carrier• Carriers can pass abnormal genes to their children• The term X-linked recessive usually refers to “Sex-linked
recessive”.1

X-Linked Inheritance
• Males affected almost exclusively
• A single recessive gene on that X chromosome will cause the disease.
• The gene alteration can be transmitted from female carriers to sons
• Affected males cannot transmit the condition to their sons.

X-Linked Recessive – In Case ofCarrier Mother And Affected Father
• Most types are caused by a gene located on the X chromosome
• Red green colorblindness is the most common type

Example 1 - Colorblindness
• Much rare than colorblindness -1 in 10,000 males -1 in 100,000,000 females
• Hemophilia A is a disorder where the blood cannot clot properly due to a deficiency of a clotting factor called Factor VIII. This results in abnormally heavy bleeding that will not stop, even from a small cut. 2
