Low-Normal FMR1 CGG Repeat Length: Phenotypic Associations

This population-based study investigates genotype-phenotype correlations of low-normal CGG repeats in the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene. FMR1 plays an important role in brain development and function, and encodes FMRP (fragile X mental retardation protein), an RNA-binding protein that r...
