No founder effect detected in Jewish Ashkenazi patients with fragile-X syndrome.

Human genetics - 1 Dec 1997

Abstract excerpt

Several studies on small homogenous populations suggested that fragile-X syndrome originated from a limited number of founder chromosomes. The Israeli Jewish population could serve as an adequate model for tracing a founder effect due to the unique ethnic makeup and traditional lifestyle. Furthermore, a common haplotype for Jewish Tunisian fragile X patients was recently reported. To test for a similar occurrence...
