The focus of this research is on women who have the FMR1 gene premutation. Those with the premutation are “carriers” of the fragile X mutation. The FMR1 premutation is highly prevalent within the United States, affecting 1 in every 151 women.

Analysis of CGG repeat numbers in the FMR1 gene among women of childbearing age in Northeast Sichuan
Objective To determine CGG repeat numbers in the Fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMR1) gene among 1,146 women of childbearing age in Northeast Sichuan, China, and to describe regional carrier prevalence. Methods A total of 1146 cases of women of

5'- and 3'-untranslated regions (UTRs) are important regulators of gene expression and play key roles in disease progression and susceptibility. The 5'-UTR of the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene contains a CGG repeat element that is expanded (>

A case of fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome with superior cerebellar peduncle lesions
Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting carriers of a premutation in the FMR1 gene involving expansion of CGG repeats. We present the case of a 66-year-old man with fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome
