Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is the most common form of inherited mental retardation in men. It is caused by abnormalities in the FMR1 gene that are associated with CGG repeat expansion and the hypermethylation status of its promoter. Methylated alleles lead to transcriptional inhibition and consequent...
