    Am J Med Genet 100:43-8. 2001
    ..No mutations were found in two BFLS families or MRX27. Although ARHGEF6 is unlikely to be the gene responsible for either BFLS or MRX27, it remains a prime candidate for nonspecific or syndromic mental retardation linked to Xq26...

    Genomics 50:1-8. 1998
    ..This contig and expressed sequence map will form the basis for the identification of the breast cancer tumor suppressor gene in this region...

    J Med Genet 43:238-43. 2006
    ..Börjeson-Forssman-Lehmann syndrome (BFLS; MIM 301900) is an infrequently described X linked disorder caused by mutations in PHF6, a novel zinc finger gene of unknown function...

    Genomics 52:325-31. 1998
    ..These genes were examined for mutations in breast tumor DNA, and both were excluded as tumor suppressor genes involved in breast cancer...

    ..Twenty percent have significant learning problems, and 95% have skewed X inactivation. We conclude that this syndrome may be underdiagnosed in males in their early years and missed altogether in isolated heterozygous females...
