This review covers the history of FAME genetic studies worldwide, starting with linkage and culminating in the discovery of noncoding TTTTA and inserted TTTCA pentanucleotide repeat expansions within six different genes to date (<jats:italic>SAMD12<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>STARD7<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>MARCHF6<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>YEATS2<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>TNRC6A<\/jats:italic>, and <jats:italic>RAPGEF2<\/jats:italic>). FAME occurs worldwide; however, repeat expansions in particular genes have regional geographical distributions. FAME repeat expansions are dynamic in nature, changing in length and structure within germline and somatic tissues. This variation poses challenges for molecular diagnosis such that molecular methods used to identify FAME repeat expansions typically require a trade\u2010off between cost and efficiency. A rigorous evaluation of the sensitivity and specificity of each molecular approach remains to be performed. The origin of FAME repeat expansions and the genetic and environmental factors that modulate repeat variability are not well defined. Longer repeats and particular arrangements of the TTTTA and TTTCA motifs within an expansion are correlated with earlier onset and increased severity of disease. Other factors such as maternal or paternal inheritance, parental age, and repeat length alone have been suggested to influence repeat variation; however, further research is required to confirm this. The history of FAME genetics to the present is a chronicle of perseverance and predominantly collaborative efforts that yielded a successful outcome. The discovery of FAME repeats will spark progress toward a deeper understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of FAME, discovery of new loci, and development of cell and animal models.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/epi.17610","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,6]],"date-time":"2023-04-06T09:38:14Z","timestamp":1680773894000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Genetics of familial adult myoclonus epilepsy: From linkage studies to noncoding repeat expansions"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"64","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9298-3072","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mark A.","family":"Corbett","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Robinson Research Institute and Adelaide Medical School University of Adelaide  Adelaide South Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7212-9554","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christel","family":"Depienne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Human Genetics University Hospital Essen, University Duisburg\u2013Essen  Essen Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9921-8450","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Liana","family":"Veneziano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Translational Pharmacology National Research Council  Rome Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6654-1665","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Karl Martin","family":"Klein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Clinical Neurosciences, Medical Genetics, and Community Health Sciences, Hotchkiss Brain Institute and Alberta Children's Hospital Research Institute, Cumming School of Medicine, University of Calgary  Calgary Alberta Canada"},{"name":"Epilepsy Center Frankfurt Rhine\u2013Main, Department of Neurology, Center of Neurology and Neurosurgery Center for Personalized Translational Epilepsy Research, University Hospital, Goethe University Frankfurt  Frankfurt am Main Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Francesco","family":"Brancati","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Translational Pharmacology National Research Council  Rome Italy"},{"name":"Medical Genetics, Department of Life, Health, and Environmental Sciences University of L'Aquila  L'Aquila Italy"},{"name":"Laboratory of Human Functional Genomics Istituto di Ricovero e Cura a Carattere Scientifico (IRCCS) San Raffaele  Rome Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Renzo","family":"Guerrini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Neuroscience and Neurogenetics Department Meyer Children's Hospital  Florence Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Federico","family":"Zara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Neurogenetics IRCCS Institute \"G.
