Abstract
The R138Q mutation in the Fragile X Mental Retardation 1 (FMR1) gene has been associated with Fragile X syndrome (FXS). Here, the authors present a Fmr1 R138Q Knock-In mouse model and show that R138Q mutation results in impaired long-term potentiation and socio-cognitive performance in these mice.
