Summary
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.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
