Premature recruitment of oocyte pool and increased mTOR activity in Fmr1 knockout mice and reversal of phenotype with rapamycin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
While mutations in the fragile X mental retardation-1 (FMR1) gene are associated with varying reproductive outcomes in females, the effects of a complete lack of FMR1 expression are not known.

Novel Wide‐Spectrum Virucidal Lipid Nanoparticles

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 7, 2 February 2026.
POSTAN is a novel broad‐spectrum antiviral nanoparticle that combines safety with potent virucidal activity. Composed of biocompatible lipids, it mimics heparan sulfate proteoglycans and lipid rafts exploited by viruses, thereby dismantling viral envelopes and blocking replication.

The Different FMRP Isoforms Bind with High Affinity to the G-Quadruplex formed by the FMRP mRNA [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2013
Fragile X syndrome, the most common form of inherited mental retardation in humans, affects about 1 in 3000 males and 1 in 5000 females. It is caused by the loss of expression of the fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) due to a CGG trinucleotide repeat expansion in the 5'-untranslated region (UTR) of the fragile x mental retardation-1 (fmr1 ...

Hair root FMRP expression for screening of fragile X full mutation females [PDF]

open access: yesUniversa Medicina, 2011
The fragile X syndrome is the most common form of inherited mental retardation in humans, caused by an expansion of the cytosine-guanine-guanine (CGG) repeat in the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene located on the X chromosome.

Altered Auditory Maturation in Fragile X Syndrome and Its Involvement in Audiogenic Seizure Susceptibility

open access: yesAutism Research, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Auditory hypersensitivity is a prominent symptom in Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most prevalent monogenic cause of autism and intellectual disability. FXS arises through the loss of the protein encoded by the FMR1 (Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein 1) gene, FMRP, required for normal neural circuit excitability.

Phosphorylation influences the translation state of FMRP-associated polyribosomes [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2003
Fragile X mental retardation protein, FMRP, is absent in patients with fragile X syndrome, a common form of mental retardation. FMRP is a nucleocytoplasmic RNA binding protein that is primarily associated with polyribosomes. FMRP is believed to be a translational repressor and may regulate the translation of certain mRNAs at the base of dendritic ...

Modulators of Diacylglycerol Kinase Activity: A Review of Advances and Challenges

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 149-175, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Catalyzing the conversion of diacylglycerol (DAG) in phosphatidic acid (PA), diacylglycerol kinases (DGKs) play a pivotal role in all the physiological processes modulated by these two bioactive lipids, such as lipid metabolism and immune regulation.

FMRP Mediates mGluR5-Dependent Translation of Amyloid Precursor Protein

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2007
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 ...

Conformational-Dependent and Independent RNA Binding to the Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein

open access: yesJournal of Nucleic Acids, 2011
The interaction between the fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) and BC1 RNA has been the subject of controversy. We probed the parameters of RNA binding to FMRP in several ways. Nondenaturing agarose gel analysis showed that BC1 RNA transcripts
