DHX30 has also been found to bind to the CCG repeats of FMR1 and depleting DHX30 levels in a Drosophila model reduced CGG repeat toxicity, potentially implicating it in FXTAS microsatellite disorder however further studies are required to confirm this association (Malik et al., 2021). The gene discussed is FMR1; the disease is fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome.
