TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: On the aggregation properties of FMRP – a link with the FXTAS syndrome?

Fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) is an RNA binding protein necessary for correct spatiotemporal control of neuronal gene expression in humans. Lack of functional FMRP causes fragile X mental retardation, which is the most common inherited neurodevelopmental disorder in humans. | IFEBS Journal On the aggregation properties of FMRP - a link with the FXTAS syndrome Ljiljana Sjekloca Kris Pauwels and Annalisa Pastore MRC National institute for MedicalResearch London UK Keywords aggregation fragile X mental retardation syndrome fragile X related tremor ataxia syndrome FXTAS protein misfolding structure Correspondence A.

Lack of functional FMRP causes fragile X mental retardation which is the most common inherited neurodevelopmental disorder in humans. In a previous study we described the biochemical and biophysical aggregation properties of constructs spanning the conserved region of FMRP and of two other human fragile X related FXR proteins FXR1P and FXR2P. Here we show that the same regions have an intrinsic tendency to aggregate and spontaneously misfold towards b-rich structures also under non-destabilizing conditions. These findings pave the way to future studies of the mechanism of formation of FXR-containing ribonucleoprotein granules and suggest a possible link with the as yet poorly understood FXR proteins associated pathologies.
