Axonal localization of the Fragile X family of RNA binding proteins is conserved across mammals

Katherine A. Shepard, Lulu I T. Korsak, Danielle DeBartolo, Michael R. Akins

The paper identifies Fragile X granules (FXGs) as a conserved axonal RNA-binding protein complex across mammals, showing developmental patterns and species-specific variations.

Sonic hedgehog signaling in astrocytes mediates cell-type-specific synaptic organization

Steven Hill, Andrew S Blaeser, Austin A. Coley, Yajun Xie, Katherine A. Shepard, Corey C. Harwell, Wen‐Jun Gao, A. Denise R. Garcia

This study shows that Sonic hedgehog signaling in astrocytes is required for cell-type-specific synaptic organization and remodeling in the cortex.

FMRP association with and regulation of Fragile X granules exhibit circuit-dependent requirements for the KH2 RNA binding domain

Ellen C. Gingrich, Katherine A. Shepard, Molly E. Mitchell, Kirsty Sawicka, Jennifer C. Darnell, Michael R. Akins

This study investigates how a mutation in FMRP's KH2 domain affects FXG association and abundance in different brain regions, revealing circuit-dependent regulation mechanisms.
