Introduction to Fragile X Syndrome

Fragile X Syndrome does not create X-Men. Sad face.

History of the disease

Fragile X Syndrome is given its name due to an abnormality of the X chromosome. The abnormality arises from a site of constriction on the long arm of the chromosome X which is prone to breaking, resulting in a chromosomal lesion.[1]
