Summary (written by the submitters)
Mutations in, or deficiency of, fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein (FMRP) is responsible for the Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most common cause for inherited intellectual disability. FMRP is a nucleocytoplasmic protein, primarily characterized as a translation repressor with poorly understood nuclear function(s). We recently reported that FXS patient cells lacking FMRP sustain higher level of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) than normal cells, specifically at sequences prone to forming R-loops, a phenotype further exacerbated by DNA replication stress.

Moreover, expression of FMRP, and not an FMRPI304N mutant known to cause FXS, reduced R-loop-associated DSBs. We subsequently reported that recombinant FMRP directly binds R-loops, primarily through the carboxyl terminal intrinsically disordered region. Here, we show that FMRP directly interacts with an RNA helicase, DHX9. This interaction, which is mediated by the amino terminal structured domain of FMRP, is reduced with FMRPI304N. We also show that FMRP inhibits DHX9 helicase activity on RNA:DNA hybrids and the inhibition is also dependent on the amino terminus. Furthermore, the FMRPI304N mutation causes both FMRP and DHX9 to persist on the chromatin in replication stress. These results suggest an antagonistic relationship between FMRP and DHX9 at the chromatin, where their proper interaction leads to dissociation of both proteins from the fully resolved R-loop. We propose that the absence or the loss of function of FMRP leads to persistent presence of DHX9 or both proteins, respectively, on the unresolved R-loop, ultimately leading to DSBs. Our study sheds new light on our understanding of the genome functions of FMRP.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE310050_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

Raw reads on ENA ↗

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1365071 and SRA study SRP644939. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

32 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 32 sample titles: 32 distinct titles with little repetition. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
