Function: Multifunctional polyribosome-associated RNA-binding protein that plays a central role in neuronal development and synaptic plasticity through the regulation of alternative mRNA splicing, mRNA stability, mRNA dendritic transport and postsynaptic local protein synthesis of a subset of mRNAs (PubMed:16631377, PubMed:18653529, PubMed:19166269, PubMed:23235829, PubMed:25464849). Plays a role in the alternative splicing of its own mRNA (PubMed:18653529). Plays a role in mRNA nuclear export (By similarity). Together with export factor NXF2, is involved in the regulation of the NXF1 mRNA stability in neurons (By similarity). Stabilizes the scaffolding postsynaptic density protein DLG4/PSD-95 and the myelin basic protein (MBP) mRNAs in hippocampal neurons and glial cells, respectively; this stabilization is further increased in response to metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) stimulation (By similarity). Plays a role in selective delivery of a subset of dendritic mRNAs to synaptic sites in response to mGluR activation in a kinesin-dependent manner (By similarity). Plays a role as a repressor of mRNA translation during the transport of dendritic mRNAs to postsynaptic dendritic spines (PubMed:11532944, PubMed:11157796, PubMed:12594214, PubMed:23235829). Component of the CYFIP1-EIF4E-FMR1 complex which blocks cap-dependent mRNA translation initiation (By similarity). Represses mRNA translation by stalling ribosomal translocation during elongation (By similarity). Reports are contradictory with regards to its ability to mediate translation inhibition of MBP mRNA in oligodendrocytes (PubMed:23891804). Also involved in the recruitment of the RNA helicase MOV10 to a subset of mRNAs and hence regulates microRNA (miRNA)-mediated translational repression by AGO2 (PubMed:14703574, PubMed:17057366, PubMed:25464849). Facilitates the assembly of miRNAs on specific target mRNAs (PubMed:17057366). Plays also a role as an activator of mRNA translation of a subset of dendritic mRNAs at synapses (PubMed:19097999, PubMed:19166269). In response to mGluR stimulation, FMR1-target mRNAs are rapidly derepressed, allowing for local translation at synapses (By similarity). Binds to a large subset of dendritic mRNAs that encode a myriad of proteins involved in pre- and postsynaptic functions (PubMed:7692601, PubMed:11719189, PubMed:11157796, PubMed:12594214, PubMed:17417632, PubMed:23235829, PubMed:24448548). Binds to 5'-ACU[GU]-3' and/or 5'-[AU]GGA-3' RNA consensus sequences within mRNA targets, mainly at coding sequence (CDS) and 3'-untranslated region (UTR) and less frequently at 5'-UTR (PubMed:23235829). Binds to intramolecular G-quadruplex structures in the 5'- or 3'-UTRs of mRNA targets (PubMed:11719189, PubMed:18579868, PubMed:25464849, PubMed:25692235). Binds to G-quadruplex structures in the 3'-UTR of its own mRNA (PubMed:7692601, PubMed:11532944, PubMed:12594214, PubMed:15282548, PubMed:18653529). Binds also to RNA ligands harboring a kissing complex (kc) structure; this binding may mediate the association of FMR1 with polyribosomes (PubMed:15805463). Binds mRNAs containing U-rich target sequences (PubMed:12927206). Binds to a triple stem-loop RNA structure, called Sod1 stem loop interacting with FMRP (SoSLIP), in the 5'-UTR region of superoxide dismutase SOD1 mRNA (PubMed:19166269). Binds to the dendritic, small non-coding brain cytoplasmic RNA 1 (BC1); which may increase the association of the CYFIP1-EIF4E-FMR1 complex to FMR1 target mRNAs at synapses (By similarity). Associates with export factor NXF1 mRNA-containing ribonucleoprotein particles (mRNPs) in a NXF2-dependent manner (By similarity). Binds to a subset of miRNAs in the brain (PubMed:14703574, PubMed:17057366). May associate with nascent transcripts in a nuclear protein NXF1-dependent manner (PubMed:18936162). In vitro, binds to RNA homomer; preferentially on poly(G) and to a lesser extent on poly(U), but not on poly(A) or poly(C) (PubMed:7688265, PubMed:7781595, PubMed:12950170, PubMed:15381419, PubMed:8156595). Moreover, plays a role in the modulation of the sodium-activated potassium channel KCNT1 gating activity (PubMed:20512134). Negatively regulates the voltage- dependent calcium channel current density in soma and presynaptic terminals of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, and hence regulates synaptic vesicle exocytosis (By similarity). Modulates the voltage- dependent calcium channel CACNA1B expression at the plasma membrane by targeting the channels for proteosomal degradation (By similarity). Plays a role in regulation of MAP1B-dependent microtubule dynamics during neuronal development (By similarity). Recently, has been shown to play a translation-independent role in the modulation of presynaptic action potential (AP) duration and neurotransmitter release via large- conductance calcium-activated potassium (BK) channels in hippocampal and cortical excitatory neurons (PubMed:25561520). Finally, FMR1 may be involved in the control of DNA damage response (DDR) mechanisms through the regulation of ATR-dependent signaling pathways such as histone H2AX/H2A.x and BRCA1 phosphorylations (PubMed:24813610). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P35922, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q80WE1, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11157796, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11532944, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11719189, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12594214, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12927206, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12950170, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14703574, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15282548, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15381419, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15805463, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16631377, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17057366, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17417632, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18579868, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18653529, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18936162, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19097999, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19166269, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20512134, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23235829, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23891804, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24448548, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24813610, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25464849, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25561520, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25692235, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7688265, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7692601, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7781595, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8156595}.

Domain: The N-terminal 134 amino acids are necessary for homodimerization and RNA-binding (PubMed:12950170). The N-terminal 298 amino acids are sufficient to interact with KCNMB4 and to regulate presynaptic action potential (AP) duration in neurons (PubMed:25561520). The two agenet-like domains are necessary for binding to histone H3 in a methylation-dependent manner (PubMed:24813610).

The RGG-box domain is necessary for binding to homomer poly(G) (PubMed:14532325). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11532944, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11719189, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12950170, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14532325, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15805463, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17057366, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18579868, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19166269, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24813610, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25561520, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25692235}.
Domain: [Isoform 10]: The C-terminal region contains a Cajal body localization signal at positions 490 through 506 (PubMed:24204304). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24204304}.
Ptm: Phosphorylated (PubMed:14532325). Phosphorylated on several serine residues. Phosphorylation at Ser-500 is required for phosphorylation of other nearby serine residues. Phosphorylation has no effect on the binding of individual mRNA species, but may affect the association with polyribosome. Unphosphorylated FMR1 is associated with actively translating polyribosome, whereas a fraction of phosphorylated FMR1 is associated with apparently stalled polyribosome. Dephosphorylation by an activated phosphatase may release the FMR1-mediated translational repression and allow synthesis of a locally required protein at snypases (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P35922, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14532325}.
Ptm: Monoubiquitinated. Polyubiquitinated. Ubiquitinated and targeted for proteasomal degradation after activation of metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P35922}.
Ptm: Monomethylated and asymmetrically dimethylated at four arginine residues of the arginine-glycine-glycine box. Methylation disrupts the binding of FMRP to RNAs through its RGG box (By similarity). Methylation is necessary for heterodimerization with FXR1, association with polyribosomes, recruitment into stress granules and translation of FMR1 target mRNAs (PubMed:16636078). Methylated by PRMT1, PRMT3 and PRMT4, in vitro (PubMed:16922515). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P35922, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16636078, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16922515}.
Ptm: [Isoform 10]: Undergoes proteolytic cleavage; may be specifically cleaved by calpain-1/CAPN1 in cajal bodies (PubMed:24204304). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24204304}.
Disease: Fragile X syndrome (FXS) [MIM:300624]: An X-linked dominant disease characterized by moderate to severe mental retardation, macroorchidism (enlargement of the testicles), large ears, prominent jaw, and high-pitched, jocular speech. The defect in most patients results from an amplification of a CGG repeat region in the FMR1 gene and abnormal methylation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10196376, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11157796, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15380484, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15805463, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17850748, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18093976, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18664458, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23235829, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24204304, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24448548, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24514761, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24813610, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25561520, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7633450, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7688265, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8156595, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8401578, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8490650, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9659908}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Disease: Fragile X tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) [MIM:300623]: In FXTAS, the expanded repeats range in size from 55 to 200 repeats and are referred to as 'premutations'. Full repeat expansions with greater than 200 repeats results in fragile X mental retardation syndrome [MIM:300624]. Carriers of the premutation typically do not show the full fragile X syndrome phenotype, but comprise a subgroup that may have some physical features of fragile X syndrome or mild cognitive and emotional problems. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11445641}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Disease: Premature ovarian failure 1 (POF1) [MIM:311360]: An ovarian disorder defined as the cessation of ovarian function under the age of 40 years. It is characterized by oligomenorrhea or amenorrhea, in the presence of elevated levels of serum gonadotropins and low estradiol. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9719368}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Miscellaneous: The mechanism of the severe phenotype in the Asn-304 patient lies in the sequestration of bound mRNAs in nontranslatable mRNP particles. In the absence of FMRP, these same mRNAs may be partially translated via alternate mRNPs, although perhaps abnormally localized or regulated, resulting in typical fragile X syndrome. Asn- 304 mutation maps to a position within the second KH domain of FMRP that is critical for stabilizing sequence-specific RNA-protein interactions. Asn-304 mutation abrogates the association of the FMRP KH 2 domain with its target, kissing complex RNA.
Similarity: Belongs to the FMR1 family. {ECO:0000305}.
