Volume electron-microscopic reconstructions of auditory brainstem neurons and their afferent synapses were used to develop a pipeline creating biophysically defined computational models with heterogenous inputs, revealing roles for subthreshold synapses to enhance temporal processing unique features of their dendrites.
Molecular biology experiments identified a cleaved METTL3, which mediates the METTL3–METTL3 interaction, a prerequisite step for recruitment of WTAP in MTC assembly, controlling m6A deposition and cancer progression.
