Summary: The human genome has many short tandem repeats, yet the normal functions of these repeats are unclear. The 5′ untranslated region (UTR) of the fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMR1) gene contains polymorphic CGG repeats, the length of ...

A nonsense mutation in FMR1 causing fragile X syndrome
Fragile X syndrome is a common cause of inherited intellectual disability. It is caused by lack of the FMR1 gene product FMRP. The most frequent cause is the expansion of a CGG repeat located in the 5'UTR of FMR1.

Background Fragile X syndrome is caused by the loss of the Fmr1 gene expression. Deletion of Fmr1 in various neuronal and non-neuronal subpopulations in the brain of mice leads to cell-type-specific effects.

Characterization of FMR1 Promoter Elements by In Vivo-Footprinting Analysis
SummaryFragile X syndrome is associated with silencing of the FMR1 gene. We studied the transcriptional regulation, by analysis of the FMR1 promoter region for the presence of in vivo protein/DNA interactions and for cyto-sine methylation at the single ...

Characterization of FMR1 proteins isolated from different tissues
: FMR1 protein expression was studied in different tissues, In human, monkey and murine tissues, high molecular mass FMR1 proteins (67-80 kDa) are found, as shown in lymphoblastoid cell lines. The identity of these proteins was confirmed by their absence

Reduced FMR1 mRNA translation efficiency in fragile X patients with premutations
The Fragile X mental retardation ′gene (FMR1) contains a polymorphic trinucleotide CGG repeat in the 5 untranslated region (UTR) of the FMR1 messenger.

The FMR1 Gene, Infertility and Reproductive Decision-Making: A Review
The strongest association between FMR1 and the ovary in humans is the increased risk of premature ovarian failure in women who carry the premutation level of CGG repeats (55-199 CGGs).

X 染色體脆折症是引起遺傳性智能不足的 主要原因之一,在X 染色體脆折症患者, FMR1 基因內的CGG 重覆序列長度會增加, 並引起基因的甲基化。FMR1 基因的篩選雖 然解釋了X 染色體脆折症特殊的遺傳模 式,但是FMR1 的功能至今仍不清楚。 在我們過去的研究中,我們證實甲基 化是FMR1 基因表現抑制的直接原因 。我們進一步 分析FMR1 啟動子的構造,並發現FMR1 啟 動子中有一段序列(MSE)可以被cAMP 活化 。 然而過去我們想看細胞株內部FMR1表現變 ...
