Description
Fragile X pedigree and restriction fragment length
polymorphism (rflp) autoradiograph showing CGG repeat
expansion. The bands on the autoradiograph
represent fragments of DNA from the Fragile X
chromosome which have been cut by enzymes at
specific base sequences. Repeats of the base
sequence CGG are characteristic of this chromosome
defect.
