    FMRP has a cell-type-specific role in CA1 pyramidal neurons to regulate autism-related transcripts and circadian memory

    Kirsty Sawicka, Caryn R Hale ... Robert B Darnell
    Identifying FMRP-bound mRNAs in hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons reveals cell-type specific regulation of autism-candidate and circadian mRNAs and FMRP-mediated control of memory across the circadian cycle.

    Drep-2 is a novel synaptic protein important for learning and memory

    Till F M Andlauer, Sabrina Scholz-Kornehl ... Stephan J Sigrist
    Drep-2 is the first representative of the evolutionary conserved CIDE-N protein family found at synapses and is required for associative learning by functionally intersecting with metabotropic signaling.

    Native functions of short tandem repeats

    Shannon E Wright, Peter K Todd
    The mechanisms by which non-pathologic short tandem repeats normally influence gene expression and engender rapid genetic variation across phylogeny directly inform how expansions in these same repeats elicit neurological disease.

    Sub-synaptic, multiplexed analysis of proteins reveals Fragile X related protein 2 is mislocalized in Fmr1 KO synapses

    Gordon X Wang, Stephen J Smith, Philippe Mourrain
    The development of a novel, high throughput method for the sub-synaptic analysis of protein localization in molecularly classified synapse classes allows sub-compartment, multiplexed detection of proteins in synapses using wide-field microscopes.

    Fragile X mental retardation protein is a Zika virus restriction factor that is antagonized by subgenomic flaviviral RNA

    Ruben Soto-Acosta, Xuping Xie ... Shelton Bradrick
    The Zika virus subgenomic flaviviral RNA binds to and inhibits the fragile X mental retardation protein, a novel Zika virus restriction factor.

    Loss of Tsc1 in cerebellar Purkinje cells induces transcriptional and translation changes in FMRP target transcripts

    Jasbir Singh Dalal, Kellen Diamond Winden ... Mustafa Sahin
    Tsc1 mutation in cerebellar Purkinje cells leads to downregulation of synapse genes that are targets of the Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein.

    Cerebellar associative sensory learning defects in five mouse autism models

    Alexander D Kloth, Aleksandra Badura ... Samuel S-H Wang
    Five mouse models of autism show deficits in delay eyeblink conditioning, a form of split-second sensory learning that involves the cerebellum, a frequent site of disruption in autistic brains.
