The pathogenesis of Fragile-X syndrome is a consequence of absence of the FMRl gene product associated with expansion of the CGG repeat and abnormal methylation of this and a CpG island 250 bp proximal to the CGG repeat located at exon 1 in the FMRl gene. While this is usually the case, some suspect

Fragile X syndrome is associated with an unstable CGG-repeat in the FMR-1 gene. There are few reports of affected males transmitting the FMR-1 gene to offspring. We report on a family in which the propositus and his twin sister each had a full mutation with abnormal methylation. Their mother had an

Several mechanisms can explain the occurrence of full-mutation fragile X males with an I& level above -2 SD below mean, also called "high-functioning fragile X males." Incomplete methylation of the CpG island at the 5' end of the FMRl gene is one of these mechanisms. The present study describes the
