Overview
Causes
Fragile x Syndrome is a genetic disease which is caused by mutation in the Fragile x Mental Retardation 1(FMR1) gene in X chromosome. Generally, these mutation (>200 repeats of CGG) occurs at in the 5' untranslated region of FMR1.[1] In around 2% of cases, Fragile X syndrome can occur as a result of point mutation in FMR1 gene.[2]
