Neurological signs in the adult with fragile-X premutation
Introduction: Fragile X syndrome is an inherited form of mental retardation. It results from an abnormally expanded number of trinucleotide CGG repeats.

Genomic studies in fragile X premutation carriers. [PDF]
The FMR1 premutation is defined as having 55 to 200 CGG repeats in the 5' untranslated region of the fragile X mental retardation 1 gene (FMR1). The clinical involvement has been well characterized for fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) and fragile X-associated primary ovarian insufficiency (FXPOI).

The Fragile-X Premutation: A Maturing Perspective [PDF]
Carriers of premutation alleles (55-200 CGG repeats) of the fragile-X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene are often regarded as being clinically uninvolved. However, it is now apparent that such individuals can present with one (or more) of three distinct clinical disorders: mild cognitive and/or behavioral deficits on the fragile-X spectrum; premature ...

BC RNA Mislocalization in the Fragile X Premutation. [PDF]
AbstractFragile X premutation disorder is caused by CGG triplet repeat expansions in the 5′ untranslated region of FMR1 mRNA. The question of how expanded CGG repeats cause disease is a subject of continuing debate. Our work indicates that CGG-repeat structures compete with regulatory BC1 RNA for access to RNA transport factor hnRNP A2.

A Comprehensive Review of Fragile X Syndrome and Fragile X Premutation Associated Conditions in Africa. [PDF]
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMR1) gene and known to be a leading cause of inherited intellectual disability globally. It results in a range of intellectual, developmental, and behavioral problems.

Developmental aspects of FXAND in a man with the FMR1 premutation [PDF]
Background Fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) premutation can cause developmental problems including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), social anxiety, depression, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). These problems fall under an umbrella

Broad Clinical Involvement in a Family Affected by the Fragile X Premutation [PDF]
The mutations in the FMR1 gene have been described as a family of disorders called fragile X-associated disorders including fragile X syndrome, fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome, primary ovarian insufficiency, and other problems associated with the premutation, such as hypothyroidism, hypertension, neuropathy, anxiety, depression, attention ...

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 ...

Automated screening for Fragile X premutation carriers based on linguistic and cognitive computational phenotypes [PDF]
Millions of people globally are at high risk for neurodegenerative disorders, infertility or having children with a disability as a result of the Fragile X (FX) premutation, a genetic abnormality in FMR1 that is underdiagnosed.
