Abstract DYX1C1 and KIAA0319 have been two of the most extensively studied candidate
genes for dyslexia given their important roles in the neuronal migration and neurite growth …

KIAA0319 at the DYX2 locus is one of the most extensively studied candidate genes for
developmental dyslexia (DD) owing to its important role in neuronal migration. Previous …

Dyslexia is a common heterogeneous disorder with a significant genetic component.
Multiple studies have replicated the evidence for linkage between variously defined …

Objective Dyslexia-susceptibility-1-candidate-1 (DYX1C1) was the first gene associated with
dyslexia. Since the original report of 2003, eight replication attempts have been published …

We applied a family-based association approach to investigate the role of the DYX1C1 gene
on chromosome 15q as a candidate gene for developmental dyslexia (DD) to 158 families …

A locus on chromosome 1p34-36 (DYX8) has been linked to developmental dyslexia or
reading disabilities (RD) in three independent samples. In the current study, we investigated …

Reading disabilities (RD) have a significant genetic basis and have shown linkage to
multiple regions including chromosome 15q. Dyslexia susceptibility 1 candidate gene 1 …

Background Dyslexia is a learning disability that is characterized by difficulties in the
acquisition of reading and spelling skills independent of intelligence, motivation or …

Objective DYX1C1 has been identified as a susceptible candidate gene for developmental
dyslexia (DD); studies in various populations have yielded inconclusive results and the …

A substantial genetic contribution in the etiology of developmental dyslexia (DD) has been
well documented with independent groups reporting a susceptibility locus on chromosome …
