Molecular testing for the trinucleotide repeats in fragile X syndrome. Shown are 3 chromatograms depicting repeat number. (a) Normal female. Note the two peaks, one for each X chromosome. (b) Normal male. One peak, one X chromosome. (c) Male with full expansion. This individual has over 200 CGG repeats noted by the large displaced peak.
