Identification of ectodysplasin-A receptor gene deletion at 2q12.2 and a potential autosomal MR locus.

Abstract excerpt

Mental retardation (MR) is not a common feature observed in patients with classical ectodermal dysplasias (EDs). Several genes responsible for EDs and MR have been identified. However, the causation has yet to be identified in a significant number of patients with either ED or MR. Here, we have molecularly characterized a de novo balanced translocation t(1;6)(p22.1;p22.1) in a female patient who had mild features...
