## Abstract Since 1985, we have provided coordinated DNA‐based and cytogenetic prenatal analysis for couples at risk for offspring afflicted with the fragile X [fra(X)] syndrome. To date, 40 pregnancies have been studied (22 males, 18 females). There were 5 males and 3 females identified to be at h
We have performed prenatal diagnosis for Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) in two unrelated families by direct gene analysis. Using a combined non-radioactive analysis of single-strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) and heteroduplex formation (HD), followed by automated sequencing, we studied DNA f
