Fragile X mental retardation protein expression in Alzheimer’s disease
The FMR1 protein product, FMRP, is an mRNA binding protein associated with translational inhibition of target transcripts. One FMRP target is the amyloid precursor protein (APP) mRNA, and APP levels are elevated in Fmr1 KO mice. Given that elevated APP

A microRNA cluster in the Fragile-X region expressed during spermatogenesis targets FMR1. [PDF]
Testis-expressed X-linked genes typically evolve rapidly. Here, we report on a testis-expressed X-linked microRNA (miRNA) cluster that despite rapid alterations in sequence has retained its position in the Fragile-X region of the X chromosome in ...

Profiling allele-specific gene expression in brains from individuals with autism spectrum disorder reveals preferential minor allele usage. [PDF]
One fundamental but understudied mechanism of gene regulation in disease is allele-specific expression (ASE), the preferential expression of one allele.

Genetic and Clinical Spectrum of Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis in Brazil
ABSTRACT Background Transthyretin hereditary amyloidosis (ATTRv) clinical variability has been widely reported, not only across countries and variants but also among families and distinct regions within a single nation. One of the principal challenges in disease management is the accurate determination of age of onset (AOO), which is heterogeneous and ...

FMRP Mediates mGluR5-Dependent Translation of Amyloid Precursor Protein
Amyloid precursor protein (APP) facilitates synapse formation in the developing brain, while beta-amyloid (Abeta) accumulation, which is associated with Alzheimer disease, results in synaptic loss and impaired neurotransmission. Fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) is a cytoplasmic mRNA binding protein whose expression is lost in fragile X ...

How copy number variations shape brain developmental disorders: Unraveling the synaptic puzzle
Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), such as schizophrenia (SCZ), Attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), learning disabilities, and intellectual disabilities (ID), are highly prevalent. One significant genetic factor associated with NDDs is copy number variations (CNVs), which are structural changes in the ...

Le syndrome de l'X fragile : Une protéine absente et 1001 ARNm déboussolés [PDF]
Le syndrome du X fragile, première cause de retard mental héréditaire, est une maladie monogénique liée au chromosome X. Le syndrome est causé par l’inactivation du gène Fragile Mental Retardation 1(FMR1) entraînant l’absence de la protéine FMRP dont le ...

Abstract The neurodevelopmental disorder fragile X syndrome (FXS) results from hypermethylation of the FMR1 gene, which prevents production of the FMRP protein. FMRP modulates the expression and function of a variety of proteins, including voltage‐gated ion channels, such as hyperpolarization‐activated and cyclic nucleotide‐gated (HCN) channels, which ...
