What happens during the disease - individuals with autosomal fragile site

Autosomal fragile sites are caused by a mutation in the dna that leads to a decrease in the stability of the dna structure. this can lead to an increased risk of chromosome breakage, resulting in a range of genetic disorders, including developmental delays, mental retardation, and physical malformations. the mutation can also lead to an increased risk of cancer, as the cells with the mutation are more likely to undergo genetic changes that can lead to malignancy.
