abstract：:The fragile X triplet repeats, (GCC)n x (GGC)n are located at the 5' untranslated region of the FMR-1 gene. Inordinate repeat expansion and hyper-methylation of the CpG islands inside the repeat lead to the suppression of the FMR-1 gene and the subsequent onset and progression of the disease. Previously, we have shown...
