FMRP activates the translation of large autism/intellectual disability proteins and stimulates N-end rule E3 ligase Poe/UBR4 production within puromycin-sensitive RNP particles

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Mutations in Fmr1, encoding the RNA binding protein FMRP, are leading causes of intellectual disability, autism, and female infertility, but FMRP’s mechanism of action is controversial. In contrast to its previously postulated function as a translation repressor acting by stalling elongation, we recently found that FMRP activates translation initiation of large proteins in Drosophila oocytes up...
