Abstract excerpt
Previous studies of founder chromosome effects in fragile X have been based on linkage disequilibrium with either FRAXAC1 or DXS548 alone or combined with FRAXAC2. Recently, we found no linkage disequilibrium of FMR-1 with FRAXAC2, but rather, found FRAXAC2 was complex and highly mutable. Therefore, we have now analyzed FRAXAC1 and DXS548 together for haplotypes, two markers which have not been jointly analyzed...
