“…1), although FMRP has long been associated with mRNA throughout its lifecycle, including splicing, editing, trafficking and stability [6,11,12,29,30]. FMRP selectively associates with a subset of mRNAs: the candidate target list is long, but altered protein levels have been established for only a tiny handful of proteins (Table 2) [29,31]. Indeed, proteomic screens suggest that the number of protein changes in both mouse and Drosophila FXS models is surprisingly small, and many of these changes may be indirect, since they don’t align well with mRNA-binding data [32].…”
