      The authors extend classical results from calculus of variations to the context of fractional differentiation. They use the notion of Euler-Lagrange fractional extremal in order to extend a Noether-type theorem to problems having fractional derivatives. They also propose a generalization of the classical concept of conservation law. In their analysis, the authors use the results from [\textit{O. P. Agrawal}, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 272, No. 1, 368--379 (2002; Zbl 1070.49013)].
