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 counseling in families with affected members. We present here the molecular study of 59 Spa

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Neural tube defects (NTDs) are complex embryological malformations, affecting 1 in 1,000 live births. Antisense studies have implicated murine __Mab21__ genes as having an important role in neural tube development. We investigated whether __MAB21L1__/__L2__ genes could be
At least three different gene loci were recently shown to account for the long QT syndrome (LQTS), a monogenic disorder with altered myocardial repolarization and occurrence of life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias. We screened 44 unrelated probands for mutations of the gene encoding the cardiac pota
