Humana Fragile-X Syndrome: Methods and Protocols (1942)

This volume provides a deep look into the technologies used for studying all aspects of Fragile-X Syndrome (FXS). As part of the successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, this book offers a structured approach to research through detailed chapter introductions and necessary material lists. Researchers can explore specific topics including monitoring for epigenetic modifications at the FMR1 locus and modeling FXS with human pluripotent stem cells or mouse neural progenitors. The text also compares mouse versus human-based models for pre-clinical research and examines Fragile-X associated with Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS). This resource is designed to support scientific advancement by providing established protocols and methodologies for studying complex genetic conditions.
