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
