Abstract excerpt

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common form of familial mental retardation (MR), attributable to (CGG)n expansion in the FMR1 gene. FRAXE is less frequent, associated with a similar mutation of the FMR2 gene. This study attempted to ascertain the prevalence of both disorders in Taiwan, as well as to develop a method to effectively find carriers. A total of 321 patients with nonspecific MR were screened for...
