Just asking because I haven't kept up with that research.  |
Just to make it clear - I said there are no "autosomal monosomies" - which leaves your Turner's out of the picture.
The Philadelphia chromosome (I'm not sure what you're getting at with it's relation to Fragile X - I've never heard of any association, which doesn't mean it's not out there) as a balanced translocation technically wouldn't fit the general idea of monosomies or trisomies as all the information is there (nor are there extra copies), just in an abnormal configuration...
As for the expanding tri-nucleotide repeats in Fragile X (CAG, right?)...as far as I'm aware it's a non-coding region.
