    Journal: Hum Genet; 1979 Sep; 50(3):247-51. PubMed ID: 489008.
    Abstract:
    A family with X-linked mental retardation and a marker X chromosome was ascertained by the presence of macro-orchidism in the three institutionalized probands. Verbal evaluation revealed a generalized language disability with commonly occurring articulation errors. The heterozygous females in this family exhibited some reduction in mental ability; the marker X chromosome was demonstrated in both sexes.
