Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are useful tools for genome wide mapping and study of disease genes. The previous polymorphism studies have focused on specific genes or SNPs pooled from a variety of different sources. We evaluated denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) as a scanning method for mutation detection in Fragile X syndrome, a well known mental retardation disorder (MRD). We screened 10 SNPs locations in fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1 gene) obtained from HGBASE database.
