BACKGROUND: Epigenetic modifications of the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene locus may impact the risk for reproductive and neurological disorders associated with expanded trinucleotide repeats and methylation status in the 5′ untranslated region. FMR1 methylation is commonly assessed by S...
