Fragile X-associated tremor\/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is one such late-onset neurodegenerative disorder characterized by premutation alleles (55\u2013200 CGG repeats) in the genome. In parallel, dysregulation of trace metal homeostasis, particularly copper (Cu) imbalance, has been documented in Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and FXTAS. However, the precise role of trace metal dyshomeostasis as a disease modifier in neurodegeneration, and its contribution to disease onset and progression, remains poorly understood.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      To understand the interaction of Copper (II) with the (CCG)\n                      <jats:sub>12<\/jats:sub>\n                      repeats sequence using spectroscopic and computational modeling studies.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      (CCG)\n                      <jats:sub>12<\/jats:sub>\n                      repeats were done by the phosphonamidite technique with a 380B ABI automated synthesizer.
