Abstract excerpt
This study characterizes the DNA methylation patterns specific to fragile X syndrome (FXS) with a full mutation (FM > 200 CGGs), premutation (PM 55-199 CGGs), and X inactivation in blood and brain tissues at the 3' boundary of the FMR1 promoter. Blood was analyzed from 95 controls and 462 individuals (32% males) with FM and PM alleles. Brain tissues (62% males) were analyzed from 12 controls and 4 with FXS. There...
