Protein Deficiency Reveals Evidence Fragile X Develops Before Birth

Researchers shifted the paradigm around Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the leading form of inherited intellectual disability, by uncovering its developmental origins pre-birth through the role of FMRP, a protein. This protein, deficient in FXS individuals, is integral to the function of mitochondria, cellular energy producers, during prenatal development.
