X‐linked mental retardation exhibiting linkage to DXS255 and PGKP1: a new MRX family (MRX14) with localization in the pericentromeric region

Gene localization was determined by linkage analysis in a large French family with X‐linked mental retardation (MRX). Seven living affected males were clinically studied and the clinical picture was characterized by moderate to severe mental handicap with poor secondary speech acquisition. Seizures, slight microcephaly, simian crease, anteverted pinnae, and macroorchidism were observed in some patients only. Linkage analysis revealed no recombination between the MRX gene and two loci: DXS255 at Xp11.22 (Zmax = 3.31 at θ= 0.00) and PGKP1 at Xq11.2‐q12 (Zmax = 3.08 at 9 = 0.00). One recombination was observed between the gene and the two loci DXS164 at Xp21.2 and DXS441 at Xq13.3, respectively. These results suggested gene localization in the pericentromeric region of the X chromosome, and the LOD scores justified assignment of the symbol MRX14 to this family.
