FMRP Regulates Neuronal RNA Granules Containing Stalled Ribosomes, Not Where Ribosomes Stall
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Local protein synthesis is a crucial process that maintains local proteostasis in neurons. A large percentage of mRNAs translated in developing neurons are associated with stalled ribosomes. FMRP, the protein lost in Fragile X syndrome, is highly enriched in RNA granules that contain stalled ribosomes. Previous examination of ribosome-protected fragments (RPFs) from stalled neuronal ribosomes identified sequences that match those found in mRNAs associated with FMRP. To investigate whether FMRP recognition of these sequences is important for determining where ribosomes stall on mRNAs, we examined RPFs isolated from P5 mice of both sexes that lack the FMRP protein. The loss of FMRP had no significant effect on the proteins associated with neuronal stalled ribosomes, on ribosome structure, or the stalling sites (locations where RPFs accumulated). There was a small, but significant decrease in the number of RPFs from mRNAs previously shown to be associated with FMRP by CLIP. Additionally, the number of neuronal RNA granules containing stalled ribosomes, as assayed by ribopuromycylation, decreased. These results suggest a role of FMRP in neuronal RNA granules that contain stalled ribosomes, though loss of FMRP does not influence where ribosomes are stalled or the formation of stalled ribosome.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
