## Abstract Cell cultures from 760 whole blood, amniotic fluid, chorionic villus sample, and peripheral umbilical blood sample specimens were exposed to multiple fra(X)(q27.3) induction systems (none had aphidicolin). Fiftyβthree exhibited the rare fragile site, fra(X)(q27.3) or FRAXA, none of whic
Female heterozygotes of the fra(X) form of mental retardation show variable degrees of mental impairment and phenotype expression of the disorder. This might be an effect of inactivation of the X-chromosome which carries the fra(X)(q). Prior replication studies in heterozygous carriers gave contradi
