RESUMEN

Through the awesome power of Drosophila genetics, two recent studies reveal novel mechanisms by which the Fragile X Mental Retardation protein regulates selective mRNA translation, controlling key steps of germline development during oogenesis and neuronal development during synaptogenesis.
