The present study focuses on math and related skills among 32 girls with fragile X (n = 14) or Turner (n = 18) syndrome during late elementary school. Performance in each syndrome group was assessed relative to Full Scale IQ–matched comparison groups of girls from the general population (n = 32 and n = 89 for fragile X syndrome and Turner syndrome, respectively). Differences between girls with ...

Abstract The authors examined receptive and expressive language profiles for a group of verbal male children and adolescents who had fragile X syndrome along with varying degrees of autism symptoms. A categorical approach for assigning autism diagnostic classification, based on the combined use of the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised and the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS), a...
Received 21 March 1995 Revised version accepted for publication 2 June 1995 Abstract The fragile X syndrome, which often presents in childhood with overgrowth, may in some cases show some diagnostic overlap with classical Sotos syndrome. We describe four fragile X patients with general overgrowth, all ofwhom are from families with other affected relatives who show the classic Martin-Bell phenot...
We examine how the family environment is associated with aspects of the Fragile X syndrome phenotype during childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. Mothers of children (n = 48), adolescents (n = 85), and adults (n = 34) with Fragile X syndrome participated in a multisite study. For children and adults with Fragile X syndrome, the presence of warmth and positivity and the absence of critici...
BACKGROUND Fragile X syndrome is caused by the expansion of a CGG trinucleotide repeat at the 5' untranslated region of the fragile X mental retardation 1 gene (FMR1). When expanded to >200 repeats (full mutation), the repeat region and the adjacent promoter CpG island become hypermethylated, rendering FMR1 transcriptionally inactive. Conventional molecular diagnosis of fragile X syndrome invol...
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...
Fragile X syndrome, second only to Down syndrome among etiologies of mental retardation, was discussed. Clinical, intellectual, and anthropometric characteristics from 67 fragile X positive males, 35 fragile X positive females, and 27 obligate carriers among 29 families was presented. Regression analysis showed little correlation between level of intellect and frequency of fragile sites. The me...
Fragile X syndrome is the most common form of inherited mental retardation in humans, with an estimated prevalence of about 1 in 4000 males. Although several observations indicate that the absence of functional Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) is the underlying basis of Fragile X syndrome, the structure and function of FMRP are currently unknown. Here, we present an X-ray crystal str...
Fragile X syndrome is the world's most common hereditary cause of intellectual disability in men and to a lesser extent in women. The disorder is caused by the silencing of a single gene on the X chromosome, the Fragile X Mental Retardation Gene-1. A substantial body of research across the disciplines of molecular genetics, child psychiatry and developmental neuroscience bears testament to a de...
