Testing for the fragile X mutation is based primarily on measuring the length of the FMR1 gene region containing the CGG repeat stretch and then calculating the CGG repeat number Analysis of the gene's methylation status (i e whether the gene is turned 'off' or 'on') is often performed simultaneously
