Most of the rare folate sensitive fragile sites cloned to date arise from expansion of a C G G : CCG trinucleotide repeat array. Analysis of the CAG repeat at the Huntington Disease (HD) locus showed a positively skewed repeat distribution leading to the proposal that microsatellites are subject to

This study presents the first large, population-based molecular investigation of the fragile X (FRAXA) and FRAXE mental retardation syndromes in the Hellenic populations of Greece and Cyprus. The aims of this population screening were to determine the prevalence of FRAXA and FRAXE syndromes among id
In order to identify genetic factors governing expansion of the CGG repeat in the FMR1 gene and to determine what predisposes or causes a normal stable allele to change to an unstable premutation allele, it is essential to study and understand the basis of normal variation. The aim of this study was
Recently, it has been suggested that trinucleotide repeat-containing genes may be involved in the etiology of schizophrenia. This study was aimed at investigating putative associations between allelic variants or expansions of CAG repeat-containing genes (CAGrCG) and schizophrenia or its variability
