Early Diagnosis of Fragile X Syndrome
Surveys from 274 families with at least one child with fragile X syndrome (FXS) were used to determine factors associated with the discovery of the diagnosis in a study at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC.

Carriers of FMR1 premutation alleles have 55–200 CGG repeats in the 5′ untranslated region of the gene. These individuals are at risk for fragile X associated primary ovarian insufficiency (females) and, in late life, fragile X associated tremor and ...

Cognitive, Behavioral, and Adaptive Functioning in Fragile X and Non-Fragile X Retarded Men [PDF]
The cognitive, behavioral, and adaptive functioning of 12 men with fragile X syndrome (aged 23 to 62 years) was systematically assessed and compared to two matched groups of retarded men without fragile X syndrome residing at the same institution.

Pathological Plasticity in Fragile X Syndrome
Deficits in neuronal plasticity are common hallmarks of many neurodevelopmental disorders. In the case of fragile-X syndrome (FXS), disruption in the function of a single gene, FMR1, results in a variety of neurological consequences directly related to ...

Clinical and molecular implications of mosaicism in FMR1 full mutations
Expansions of more than 200 CGG repeats (full mutation) in the FMR1 gene give rise to fragile X syndrome (FXS) through a process that generally involves hypermethylation of the FMR1 promoter region and gene silencing, resulting in absence of expression ...
