This table represents mRNAs for channel proteins that can bind to, and therefore be regulated by FMRP. The absence of an mRNA from this table does not however mean that the particular channel is not regulated by FMRP. It may reflect a low abundance of that particular mRNA and therefore not detected by the assay used in the indicated study.
