Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rett syndrome is an X-linked dominant disorder. Males with a mutation in the MeCP2 gene typically do not survive to birth or early infancy, so a male with a normal mother and a father with Rett syndrome would not inherit the mutation, as the father cannot pass on his X chromosome to a son.
