Fragile X premutations are not a major cause of early menopause.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Dec 1997

Kenneson A, Cramer D W, Warren S T

Abstract excerpt

Fragile X syndrome is an X-linked mental retardation condition that usually is due to a trinucleotide-repeat expansion in the FMR1 gene. Whereas full-mutation alleles (> 230 repeats) lead to fragile X syndrome, premutation alleles (approximately 60-200 repeats) are apparently non-penetrant. However, previous studies have suggested that female premutation carriers may have an increased incidence of premature...
