RNA binding proteins (RBPs) are linked to the prevalent hereditary disorder known as fragile X syndrome (FXS). It was discovered that FMRP, or fragile X mental retardation protein, was absent in cases of FXS. A significant and actively researched selective RBP is FMRP. It is present in the soma, dendrites, and axon of the neuron and is crucial for healthy synaptic function. Between 85 and 90 percent of FMRPs are engaged in the functions of polysomes, including as translational control and neurodegeneration.
