Array CGH identifies reciprocal 16p13.1 duplications and deletions that predispose to autism and/or mental retardation

Autism and mental retardation (MR) are often associated, suggesting that these conditions are etiologically related. Recently, array-based comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) has identified submicroscopic deletions and duplications as a common cause of MR, prompting us to search for such g... View More
