Guest guest Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 $21.8 Million NIH Grant for Fragile X Research http://www.medadnews.com/News/Index.cfm?articleid=472969 Fragile X Syndrome is the leading heritable form of intellectual disability and the neurodevelopmental problems related to both full mutation and premutation forms of the fragile X gene. The full mutation is responsible for FXS and is the leading known single-gene cause of autism. The smaller, premutation form of the gene is the leading known cause of fragile X-associated premature ovarian failure (POF) in adult women, and can also cause ADHD and autism spectrum disorders.
