“…In addition, we noted that this analysis identified several confirmed direct targets of Drosophila FMRP found by genetic or targeted biochemical means, including CaMKII, chic, Dscam1, futsch, ninaE, rg and tral (Cvetkovska et al, 2013;Kim et al, 2013;Monzo et al, 2010;Reeve et al, 2005;Sears et al, 2019;Sudhakaran et al, 2014;Wang et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2001). As the first CLIP-based assay to characterize Drosophila FMRP, this analysis also identified CAUUG(A/U) as its top binding motif (Fig 5C), consistent with prior identification of the AUUG sequence in one of the top binding motifs of human FXR1 (Feng et al, 2019).…”
