The behavioral phenotype of Williams syndrome: A recognizable pattern of neurodevelopment.

American journal of medical genetics. Part C, Seminars in medical genetics - 15 Nov 2010

Morris Colleen A

Abstract excerpt

Williams syndrome (WS), caused by hemizygous deletion of 1.55-1.8 Mb of chromosome 7q11.23, has a recognizable behavior phenotype that is an important diagnostic sign. Individuals with WS are overly friendly, gregarious, empathetic, and loquacious, but have difficulty interpreting social cues and in making and keeping friends. The neurodevelopmental profile is characterized by overall intellectual disability,...
