Resumen:
The FMR1 gene consists of 17 exons and codes for the FMRP protein. FMR1 is involved in four genetic disorders depending on the CGG repeats length in its 5´UTR: the full mutation is responsible for the Fragile X syndrome while the premutation is associated with the Fragile X-associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome, Fragile X-associated Primary Ovarian Insufficiency (FXPOI) and Fragile X-associated neuropsychiatric disorders. FMR1 presents multiple isoforms resulting from skipping of exons 12 and 14 and the use of alternative splice sites in exons 15 and 17.
