Mapping of a gene for nonspecific X‐linked mental retardation (MRX 75) to Xq24–q26

Mapping of a gene for nonspecific X‐linked mental retardation (MRX 75) to Xq24–q26 Nonspecific X‐linked mental retardation is a heterogeneous condition consisting of non‐syndromal mental retardation in males. It is caused by mutation in one of several genes on the X chromosome (MRX genes). Here we report on the localization of a presumptive MRX gene to chromosomal region Xq24–q26 in a German family with nonspecific X‐linked mental retardation (MRX 75, HUGO Human Gene Nomenclature Committee). Two point linkage analysis with 23 informative markers gave a lod score of 2.53 at Θ = 0 for markers DXS425, DXS1254, DXS1114, and HPRT. Am. J. Med.

Abstract

Nonspecific X‐linked mental retardation is a heterogeneous condition consisting of non‐syndromal mental retardation in males. It is caused by mutation in one of several genes on the X chromosome (MRX genes). Here we report on the localization of a presumptive MRX gene to chromosomal region Xq24–q26 in a German family with nonspecific X‐linked mental retardation (MRX 75, HUGO Human Gene Nomenclature Committee). Two point linkage analysis with 23 informative markers gave a lod score of 2.53 at Θ = 0 for markers DXS425, DXS1254, DXS1114, and HPRT. Am. J. Med. Genet. 93:290–293, 2000. © 2000 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
