Fragile X syndrome in Calcutta, India.

Annals of clinical biochemistry - 1 May 2001

Saha S, Karmakar P, Chatterjee C, Banerjee D, Das S, Dasgupta U B

Abstract excerpt

Fragile-X-linked mental retardation usually results from amplification of the CGG repeat in the 5' untranslated region of the FMR1 gene. To assess the extent of variation of the CGG repeat in the population from the eastern region of India we studied 98 mentally retarded individuals living in and around Calcutta and identified 21 distinct alleles ranging in size from 8 to 44 CGG repeats. A repeat size of 28 was...
