Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: X-linked mental retardation-hypotonic facies syndrome-1 (MRXFH1), caused by a mutation in the ATRX gene, is a rare syndromic form of X-linked mental retardation (XLMR) that is mainly characterized by severe intellectual disability, dysmorphic facies, and skewed X-inactivation pattern in carrier women. METHOD: In this study, due to the genetic heterogeneity of the disease, we performed exome sequencing...
