Abstract excerpt
In order to investigate the origin of the fragile X mutation in the Brazilian population, we assessed the size of the microsatellite markers DXS548, FRAXAC1 and FRAXAC2 in 72 X chromosomes from unrelated affected males and 64 control chromosomes. We found a significantly different distribution of alleles between fragile X and controls for loci DXS548 and FRAXAC1, but no apparent linkage disequilibrium was...
