Abstract excerpt
A significant source of risk for neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), including intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), lies in genes located on the X chromosome. Males can be particularly vulnerable to X-linked variation because of hemizygosity, and male-specific segregation in pedigrees has guided earlier gene discovery for X-linked recessive conditions. More recently, X-linked...
