Haplotypic determinants of instability in the FRAX region: Concatenated mutation or founder effect?
Human mutation - 1 Jan 2001
Ennis S, Murray A, Morton N E
Abstract excerpt
The fragile X triplet repeat expansion at Xq27.3 has been shown to be associated with mutation or instability 600 kb distal at the FMR2 repeat locus. Concatenated mutation, whereby a mutation at one locus somehow interacts with mutation, recombination, deletion, or transposition at another locus, is a possible explanation. In this study we examine evidence from a sample of over 7,000 independent haplotypes from...
