Abstract excerpt

Gene localization was determined by linkage analysis in 5 families with non-specific X-linked mental retardation (MRX) and were MRX1, Xp11.4-q21.31; MRX10, Xp21.3-p11.4; MRX11, Xp21.3-p11.22; MRX12, Xp21.3-q21.1; and MRX13, Xp22.3-q21.22. Four of these localizations cross the dystrophin brain pro...
