Human FMR1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of Xq27.3 and is approximately 39 kb in length. This allele, which encodes fragile X mental retardation 1 protein, may play a role in the mediation of mRNA transport. Amplification of a trinucleotide repeat (CGG) within the gene is associated with fragile X syndrome.
