Genotype, molecular phenotype, and cognitive phenotype: correlations in fragile X syndrome.
The study of the neurobehavioral consequences of mutations of FMR1, the gene responsible for fragile X syndrome (FraX), has been based largely on correlations between mutation patterns and cognitive profile. Following the characterization of FMRP, the FMR1 gene product, preliminary correlations between FMRP levels, and neurologic phenotype have been established. However, most of these investiga...
متن کاملGenotype prediction in the fragile X syndrome.
Fragile X positive, mentally retarded males have been shown to have an insertion or amplification of DNA sequences at, or close to, the site of expression of the fragile site. We show here the application of the detection of such changes to the diagnosis of affected males and female carriers and the identification of normal transmitting males. One fragile X negative male with the clinical featu...
متن کاملNew insights into Fragile X syndrome. Relating genotype to phenotype at the molecular level.
Lack of functional Fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) is the primary cause of the Fragile-mental retardation syndrome in humans. In most cases, the disease results from transcriptional silencing of fragile mental retardation gene 1, fmr1, which encodes FMRP. However, a single missense mutation (I304N) in the second KH domain of FMRP gives rise to a particularly severe case of Fragile X...
متن کاملBehavioral phenotype of fragile X syndrome in adolescence and adulthood.
The present study explored the behavioral profile of individuals with fragile X syndrome during adolescence and adulthood. Individuals with both fragile X syndrome and autism (n = 30) were compared with (a) individuals diagnosed with fragile X syndrome (but not autism; n = 106) and (b) individuals diagnosed with autism (but not fragile X syndrome; n = 135) on measures of autism symptoms, ...
متن کاملGenotype-phenotype correlation in X-linked Alport syndrome.
Mutations in the COL4A5 gene cause X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS). Understanding the correlation between clinical manifestations and the underlying mutations adds prognostic value to genetic testing, which is increasingly available. Our aim was to determine the association between genotype and phenotype in 681 affected male participants with XLAS from 175 US families. Hearing loss and ocular c...
