aThese ranges vary between studies and often the upper limit is unknown. It is important to note that these are only potentially pathogenic. There is a small (< 1%) subsection of the healthy control population who have expanded alleles with no clinical manifestations. Similarly, there are alleles lower than the given range who may have intermediate alleles and premutation syndromes
