X-linked intellectual disability related to a novel variant of KLHL15 [PDF]
Kelch-like (KLHL) 15, localized on chromosome Xp22.11, was recently identified as an X-linked intellectual disability gene. Herein, we report a case of a male patient with a novel nonsense variant, c.736 C > T p.(Arg246*), in KLHL15, who presented with ...

Challenges in molecular diagnosis of X-linked Intellectual disability [PDF]
Abstract Background Intellectual disability (ID) affects 1–3% of the Western population and is heterogeneous in origin. Mutations in X-linked genes represent 5–10% of ID in males. Fragile X syndrome, due to the silencing of the FMR1 gene, is the most common form of ID, with a prevalence of around 1 ...

Novel variants in the CLCN4 gene associated with syndromic X-linked intellectual disability [PDF]
ObjectiveThe dysfunction of the CLCN4 gene can lead to X-linked intellectual disability and Raynaud–Claes syndrome (MRXSRC), characterized by severe cognitive impairment and mental disorders.

Seizures and X-linked intellectual disability [PDF]
Intellectual disability occurs as an isolated X-linked trait and as a component of recognizable X-linked syndromes in the company of somatic, metabolic, neuromuscular, or behavioral abnormalities. Seizures accompany intellectual disability in almost half of these X-linked disorders. The spectrum of seizures found in the X-linked intellectual disability

Novel CLCN4 variant associated with syndromic X-linked intellectual disability in a Chinese girl: a case report [PDF]
Background The Raynaud-Claes type of X-linked syndromic mental retardation (MRXSRC) is a very rare condition, by intellectual disability ranged from borderline to profound, impaired language development, brain abnormalities, facial dysmorphisms and ...

Functional Characterization of CLCN4 Variants Associated With X-Linked Intellectual Disability and Epilepsy [PDF]
Early/late endosomes, recycling endosomes, and lysosomes together form the endo-lysosomal recycling pathway. This system plays a crucial role in cell differentiation and survival, and dysregulation of the endo-lysosomal system appears to be important in ...

UBE2A-related X-linked intellectual disability. [PDF]
UBE2A-related X-linked intellectual disability is characterized by a distinctive facial phenotype (dense eyebrows and eyelashes, synophrys, hypertelorism, upslanted palpebral fissures, wide mouth, and thin lips), generalized hirsutism, hypoplastic genitalia, short stature, hypotonia, seizures, and severe intellectual ...

X-linked intellectual disability update 2017. [PDF]
The X‐chromosome comprises only about 5% of the human genome but accounts for about 15% of the genes currently known to be associated with intellectual disability. The early progress in identifying the X‐linked intellectual disability (XLID)‐associated genes through linkage analysis and candidate gene sequencing has been accelerated with the use of ...
