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
## Linkage analysis was performed on a fourgeneration family with nonspecific mental retardation (MRX59 ). The five affected males, ranging in age from 2 years to 52 years, have a normal facial appearance and mild to severe mental impairment. Four obligate carriers are physically normal and not ret
We read with interest the article, published recently in this journal by Ronce et al. [1999] describing three generations of a French family segregating with a syndromal form of X-linked mental retardation (XLMR) characterized by hypotonia, intractable seizures, and severe mental deficiency.

Nonspecific X-linked mental retardation (MRX) is a heterogeneous condition in which mental retardation (MR) appears to be the only consistent manifestation. A large genetic interval of assignment obtained on individual families by linkage analysis, genetic, heterogeneity, and phenotypic variability
