Abstract Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the leading genetic cause of intellectual disability, arises from FMR1 gene silencing and the subsequent loss of the RNA-binding protein FMRP. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a prevalent mRNA modification essential for post-transcriptional regulation. FMRP binds and regulates the stability of m6A-containing transcripts. However, how FMRP deficiency impacts transcriptome-wide m6A modifications in FXS remains unknown.
