Zhang W, Cheng Y, Li Y, Chen Z, Jin P, Chen D. A feed-forward mechanism involving Drosophila fragile X mental retardation protein triggers a replication stress-induced DNA damage response. Hum Mol Genet. 2014 May 15. pii: ddu241. PMID: 24833720.
From the abstract: "Fragile X syndrome, a common form of inherited mental retardation, is caused by loss of the fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP). ... Here we show that Drosophila dFMR1 in nucleus is required for replication stress-induced H2Av phosphorylation in the DNA damage response (DDR). ..."
