Fragile X syndrome (FXS) presents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), intellectual disability, developmental delay, seizures, hypotonia during infancy, joint laxity, behavioral issues, and characteristic facial features. The predominant mechanism is due to CGG trinucleotide repeat expansion of more than 200 repeats in the 5′UTR (untranslated region ...

CGG repeat expansion may occur in the 5′ untranslated region of the FMR1 gene. The resulting mutant DNA and RNA with expanded CGG repeats form stable secondary structures that can interfere with numerous cellular processes. Depending on the length of the CGG repeats, different molecular phenotypes may occur, which in turn determine different clinical ...

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is caused by the maternal expansion of an unstable CGG-repeat tract located in the first exon of the FMR1 gene. Further changes in repeat number occur during embryogenesis resulting in individuals sometimes being highly mosaic ...

Fragile X-associated primary ovarian insufficiency (FXPOI) occurs in about 20% of women who carry a premutation allele (55–200 CGG repeats). These women develop hypergonadotropic hypogonadism and have secondary amenorrhea before age 40.

A holistic approach to fragile X syndrome integrated guidance for person‐centred care
Abstract Background The Fragile X community has expressed a desire for centralised, national guidelines in the form of integrated guidance for Fragile X Syndrome (FXS). Methods This article draws on existing literature reviews, primary research and clinical trials on FXS, a Fragile X Society conference workshop and first‐hand experience of clinicians ...

CGG Repeat RNAs Regulate Granule Translation
Fragile X tremor ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) and fragile X primary ovarian insufficiency (FXPOI) are associated with CGG repeat expansions in the 5’UTR of the FMR1 gene.

Premature ovarian insufficiency caused by FMR1 premutations may be underdiagnosed [PDF]
2nd advanced courseThe FMR1 gene [Xq27.3; MIM*309550] has an unstable region comprised of CGG triplets located the 5´untranslated region. Based on the number of those repeats alleles are classified as normal, intermediate, premutation or full mutation ...
