Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: CGG repeat expansion on the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene is used to diagnose fragile X syndrome. Previous studies have discussed the correlation between the number of CGG repeats and its associated phenotypic components. The objective of this study is to determine whether the number of CGG repeats differ between carriers of genetic disorders versus noncarriers. METHODS: We performed a...
