Seven DNA probes have been mapped within the Xq27-Xq28 region using in situ hybridization, in some cases on chromosomes expressing the fragile site to enhance the resolution. To complement these studies and investigate the relationship between genetic, cytogenetic and physical distance some of these probes were used for large scale mapping using pulsed field gels. Physical linkage was demonstrated between two loci, F9 and MCF2, which are separated by less than 270 kb, and a restriction map extending over 1,300 kb has been generated.

D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.

D012150 Polymorphism, Restriction Fragment Length Variation occurring within a species in the presence or length of DNA fragment generated by a specific endonuclease at a specific site in the genome. Such variations are generated by mutations that create or abolish recognition sites for these enzymes or change the length of the fragment.

D005600 Fragile X Syndrome A condition characterized genotypically by mutation of the distal end of the long arm of the X chromosome (at gene loci FRAXA or FRAXE) and phenotypically by cognitive impairment, hyperactivity, SEIZURES, language delay, and enlargement of the ears, head, and testes. INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY occurs in nearly all males and roughly 50% of females with the full mutation of FRAXA.
