FRA7A
Chr 7fragile site, folic acid type, rare, fra(7)(p11.2)
This biological region is found within the 5' untranslated region of the zinc finger protein 713 (ZNF713) gene on the p arm of chromosome 7. This region is a rare folate-sensitive fragile site and contains a highly polymorphic CGG/CCG trinucleotide repeat. Moderately expanded premutation alleles of about 80 repeats have been observed, and display mitotic instability. Expansions of the repeat to greater than 450 copies are thought to be associated with autism spectrum disorder. Hypermethylation of a CpG island near the repeat expansion has been observed in alleles with large expansions, resulting in decreased expression of ZNF713 gene products.
