## Abstract Relationships between the fragile X dynamic mutation and palmar and finger epidermal ridge measures were assessed using a robust modification of the maximum likelihood estimators for pedigree data. A total of 34 extended families affected with fragile X syndrome were used. Phenotypic tr
The fragile X mental retardation 1 gene (FMR1) mutation is strongly correlated with specific and marked neurobehavioral and neuroanatomical abnormalities. The protein product, FMRP, is highly expressed in neurons of the normal mammalian brain, and absent or in low levels in leukocytes from individua
