The premutation of the fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMR1) gene is characterized by an expansion of the CGG trinucleotide repeats (55 to 200 CGGs) in the 5’ untranslated region and increased levels of FMR1 mRNA. Molecular mechanisms leading to

Association Between Idiopathic Premature Ovarian Failure and Fragile X Premutation
A total of 106 women affected by premature ovarian failure (POF) were evaluated for fragile X (FRAXA) premutation. The POF patients were classified as having a familial condition (33 women), at least one relative with early menopause (12 women), or a ...

Phenobarbital Use and Neurological Problems in FMR1 Premutation Carriers [PDF]
Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a CGG expansion in the FMR1 gene located at Xq27.3. Patients with the premutation in FMR1 present specific clinical problems associated with the number of CGG repeats (55-200 CGG repeats)

The FMR1 premutation and reproduction
Fertility and Sterility, 2007To update clinicians on the reproductive implications of premutations in FMR1 (fragile X mental retardation 1). Fragile X syndrome, a cause of mental retardation and autism, is due to a full mutation (>200 CGG repeats). Initially, individuals who carried the premutation (defined as more than 55 but less than 200 CGG repeats) were not considered at risk

Identification of small FRAXA premutations
Molecular Diagnosis, 2000Diagnosis of fragile X syndrome in mentally retarded individuals is satisfactorily achieved using a Southern blot test that detects the typical triplet repeat expansion (>200 repeats) within the FMR1 gene. All such individuals inherit the mutation from a carrier, who usually shows a lower triplet repeat number and may be asymptomatic. Having identified
