Finding
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for recessive traits related to a gene encoded on the X chromosome. In the context of medical genetics, X-linked recessive disorders manifest in males (who have one copy of the X chromosome and are thus hemizygotes), but generally not in female heterozygotes who have one mutant and one normal allele.

Definition

Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome is an X-linked condition characterized by pre- and postnatal overgrowth, coarse facies, congenital heart defects, and other congenital abnormalities (Xuan et al., 1999). It shows phenotypic similarities to Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS; 130650), another overgrowth syndrome. Genetic Heterogeneity of Simpson-Golabi-Behmel Syndrome See Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome type 2 (SGBS2; 300209), caused by mutation in the OFD1 gene (300170) on chromosome Xp22. [from OMIM]
