Merge X-linked dominant, X-linked recessive, and Sex linkage into an article on "X-linked inheritance" or "X-linked disorders"?[edit]

What do people think about merging these topics? The X-linked dominant article is woefully lacking and the X-linked recessive article makes note of the fact that differences in X-inactivation can lead to phenotypic expression of an X-linked "recessive" trait in a "carrier" female. In many of these disorders female carriers DO have phenotypes (for example, carriers of a Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy gene mutation are at high risk for cardiomyopathy as adults) so the "recessive" label should not really be applied. The Sex linkage article seems to be an attempt to do this but would need to be overhauled.

Support - would go for 'inheritance' rather than 'disorder' since article would apply to non-disease genes too. LeeVJ (talk) 10:39, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- SED tarda should be on the list though there's no wiki article... mlaird (talk) 03:58, 13 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
