Key gene for the development of human brain has been discovered by scientists. The study shows how mutations in the gene called USP9X are linked to intellectual disability. These mutations - inheritable from one generation to the next - are believed to cause disruptions to normal brain cell functioning.

Scientists Discover Gene Behind Brain Development
Key gene for the development of human brain has been discovered by scientists. The study shows how mutations in the gene called USP9X are linked to intellectual disability. These mutations - inheritable from one generation to the next - are believed to cause disruptions to normal brain cell functioning.
