FMR1 CGG repeat patterns and flanking haplotypes in three Asian populations and their relationship with repeat instability.

Annals of human genetics - 1 Nov 2006

Abstract excerpt

Hyper-expansion of a CGG repeat in the 5' untranslated region of the FMR1 gene followed by methylation and silencing is the predominant cause of Fragile X syndrome, the most common inherited mental retardation disorder. Most detailed studies of the FMR1 gene have focused on Caucasian populations and patients. We performed a detailed haplotype and linkage disequilibrium analysis of the FMR1 gene in a total of 454...
