Female heterozygotes of the fra(X) form of mental retardation show variable degrees of mental impairment and phenotype expression of the disorder. This might be an effect of inactivation of the X-chromosome which carries the fra(X)(q). Prior replication studies in heterozygous carriers gave contradi

X-linked alpha-thalassemia/mental retardation syndrome (ATR-X) is a syndromic form of X-linked mental retardation. We investigated the X-inactivation status of nine female ATR-X carriers by methylation-specific PCR of the HUMARA gene. Six carriers demonstrated a skewed X-inactivation pattern (>90:10
