Abstract excerpt

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common form of familial mental retardation (MR). It is caused by the expansion of the CGG repeat in the FMR1 gene on the X chromosome. To date, FXS is not treatable, but can be prevented by prenatal genetic examination. Identifying women who carry a full mutat...
