Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates generally to an assay for the determination of epigenetic profiles, particularly epigenetic profiles associated with a pathological condition. Even more particularly, the present invention provides an assay to detect epigenetic profiles within the Fragile X Mental Retardation (FMR) genetic locus indicative of a pathoneurological condition such as pathoneurodevelopmental and pathoneurodegenerative conditions. The epigenetic profiles can also identify potential non-neurological conditions. Kits and assays for medicaments also form part of the present invention as do computer programs to monitor changes in epigenetic patterns and methods for screening for agents which modulate epigenetic modification.
