Pilot fragile X screening in normal population of Taiwan.

Diagnostic molecular pathology : the American journal of surgical pathology, part B - 1 Sept 1999

Abstract excerpt

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common hereditary form of mental retardation. Molecular analysis of the FMR1 gene has now been applied to diagnosis and carrier detection. Because treatment is not feasible, prevention of FXS by prenatal diagnosis of carrier women early during pregnancy is important. The aim of this pilot study was to ascertain the prevalence of mutant FMR1 gene in normal population of Taiwan...
