Nonspecific X-linked mental retardation is a heterogeneous condition consisting of nonsyndromal mental retardation in males. It is caused by mutation in one of several genes on the X chromosome (MRX genes). Here we report on the localization of a presumptive MRX gene to chromosomal region Xq24-q26 in a German family with nonspecific X-linked mental retardation (MRX 75, HUGO Human Gene Nomenclature Committee). Two point linkage analysis with 23 informative markers gave a lod score of 2.53 at theta = 0 for markers DXS425, DXS1254, DXS1114, and HPRT.
非特异性X连锁智力迟钝是一种异质性疾病,表现为男性非综合征性智力迟钝。它由X染色体上几个基因(MRX基因)之一的突变引起。本文我们报告了在一个患有非特异性X连锁智力迟钝的德国家庭(MRX 75,HUGO人类基因命名委员会)中,一个推定的MRX基因定位于染色体区域Xq24 - q26。使用23个信息性标记进行两点连锁分析,在θ = 0时,标记DXS425、DXS1254、DXS1114和HPRT的连锁值为2.53。
