Brunner syndrome is a rare genetic disorder associated with a mutation in the MAOA gene. It is characterized by lower than average IQ (typically about 85), problematic impulsive behavior (such as pyromania, hypersexuality and violence), sleep disorders and mood swings. [1] [2] It was identified in fourteen males from one family in 1993.
Rare mutations in the gene are associated with Brunner syndrome. [medical citation needed] A study based on the Dunedin cohort concluded that maltreated children with a low-activity polymorphism in the promoter region of the MAO-A gene were more likely to develop antisocial conduct disorders than maltreated children with the high-activity ...
English: A section of chromosome X, showing the relative positions of MAOA and MAOB genes and mutations typed in [1]. Mutations that were polymorphic in the Maori group are coloured blue. The labels for each mutation refer to the segment, region, and nucleotide position from [2].

They are deactivated in the body by the enzymes known as monoamine oxidases which clip off the amine group. Monoaminergic systems, i.e., the networks of neurons that use monoamine neurotransmitters, are involved in the regulation of processes such as emotion, arousal, and certain types of memory.
