    Impaired Mitochondrial Function and Dynamics in the Pathogenesis of FXTAS

    Mitochondrial involvement plays an important role in neurodegenerative diseases. At least one-third of adult carriers of a FMR1 premutation (55-200 CGG repeats) are at risk of presenting an adult-onset neurodegen...

    X-chromosome tiling path array detection of copy number variants in patients with chromosome X-linked mental retardation

    Aproximately 5–10% of cases of mental retardation in males are due to copy number variations (CNV) on the X chromosome. Novel technologies, such as array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), may help to u...

    Screening for FMR1 and FMR2 mutations in 222 individuals from Spanish special schools: identification of a case of FRAXE-associated mental retardation

    Fragile X syndrome is the most common inherited form of familial mental retardation. It results from a (CGG) n trinucleotide expansion in the FMR1 gene leading to the typical M...

    A female compound heterozygote (pre- and full mutation) for the CGG FMR1 expansion

    Fragile X syndrome is the most common cause of inherited mental retardation. The incidence has been estimated to be 1 in 1250 males and 1 in 2000 females. Molecular studies have shown that 95% of fragile X sy...

    YAC and cosmid FISH map** of an unbalanced chromosomal translocation causing partial trisomy 21 and Down syndrome

    Most cases of Down syndrome (DS) result from a supernumerary chromosome 21; however, there are rare cases in which DS is due to partial trisomy of chromosome 21, involving various segments of the chromosome. ...

    Molecular analysis of the (CGG)n expansion in the FMR-1 gene in 59 Spanish fragile X syndrome families

    The fragile X mental retardation syndrome is caused by an expansion of a trinucleotide repeat (CGG)n in the FMR-1 gene. Molecular genetic study of fragile X provides accurate diagnosis and facilitates genetic cou...
