Notes This gene sequence variant database has been initiated based on the data reported by Tarpey et al. (2009) A systematic, large-scale resequencing screen of the X-chromosome coding exons in mental retardation. Nat.Genet. 41: 535-543. Establishment of the database was supported by the European Community's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) under grant agreement No 200754 - the GEN2PHEN project.
