Nonspecific X-linked mental retardation (XLMR) is a common disorder. The number of genes involved in this condition is not known, but it is estimated to be more than 10.

Four families are described in which mental retardation segregates in an X-linked fashion. Mental retardation was the only consistent clinical finding in all affected males. The degree of retardation varied from mild to profound both between and within families. Linkage analysis localized the geneti

Families with mentally retarded males found to be negative for FRAXA and FRAXE mutations are useful in understanding the genetic basis of X-linked mental retardation. According to the most recent data (updated to 1999), 69 MRX loci have been mapped and 6 genes cloned. Here we report on a linkage stu

Two families with nonspecific X-linked mental retardation (XLMR) are presented. In the first family, MRX49, 5 male patients in 2 generations showed mild to moderate mental retardation. Two-point linkage analysis with 28 polymorphic markers, dispersed over the X-chromosome, yielded a maximal LOD scor
