    Reduction of elevated proton leak rejuvenates mitochondria in the aged cardiomyocyte

    Huiliang Zhang, Nathan N Alder ... Peter S Rabinovitch
    The primary respiratory defect seen in aged cardiomyocytes is an elevated proton leak mediated by ANT1, and this is prevented by treatment with SS-31 (elamipretide).

    Late-life restoration of mitochondrial function reverses cardiac dysfunction in old mice

    Ying Ann Chiao, Huiliang Zhang ... Peter Rabinovitch
    Mitochondrial-targeted SS-31 peptide ameliorates mitochondrial dysfunction and rescues pre-existing cardiac dysfunction in old mice, supporting the translational potential of mitochondrial protective interventions to treat age-related diseases.

    Structure-activity relationships of mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide pharmacological compounds

    Wayne Mitchell, Jeffrey D Tamucci ... Nathan N Alder
    Sequence-variant analogs of mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptides have distinct patterns of membrane-bound conformations, effects on membrane properties, and abilities to protect mitochondria subject to stress, illuminating how side chain variation can be leveraged in the development of more effective therapeutic compounds.

    Periodic DNA patrolling underlies diverse functions of Pif1 on R-loops and G-rich DNA

    Ruobo Zhou, Jichuan Zhang ... Taekjip Ha
    Analyzing single molecules reveals that Pif1 family helicases periodically patrol DNA, which may explain this enzyme's ability to suppress genome instability at G-quadruplex motifs and transcriptional RNA-DNA hybrids (R-loops).

    m6A modification of U6 snRNA modulates usage of two major classes of pre-mRNA 5’ splice site

    Matthew T Parker, Beth K Soanes ... Gordon G Simpson
    High throughput sequencing of Arabidopsis mutants lacking the U6 snRNA methyltransferase FIONA1/METTL16 uncovers the role of U6 methylation in splicing signal preferences.

    Neural dynamics of semantic categorization in semantic variant of primary progressive aphasia

    V Borghesani, CL Dale ... SS Nagarajan
    Following anterior temporal lobe neurodegeneration, defective semantic representations are compensated via enhanced perceptual processing and associated with a dysregulation of the semantic control system.

    The cerebellum linearly encodes whisker position during voluntary movement

    Susu Chen, George J Augustine, Paul Chadderton
    Cerebellar Purkinje cells represent movements via bidirectional linear changes in spike rate, and activity from single cells is sufficient to reconstruct kinematic changes during bouts of free whisking.

    A stable mode of bookmarking by TBP recruits RNA polymerase II to mitotic chromosomes

    Sheila S Teves, Luye An ... Robert Tjian
    The general transcriptional machinery promotes the efficient reactivation of global transcription following mitosis, and thereby enables maintenance of transcriptional memory through the cell cycle.

    RNA splicing programs define tissue compartments and cell types at single-cell resolution

    Julia Eve Olivieri, Roozbeh Dehghannasiri ... Julia Salzman
    Comprehensive analysis of alternative splicing from human droplet-based scRNA-seq data identifies genes with regulated splicing conserved in mouse and mouse lemur.

    Competition between parallel sensorimotor learning systems

    Scott T Albert, Jihoon Jang ... Reza Shadmehr
    When a common error drives parallel implicit and explicit learning systems, increases in the explicit response will suppress implicit adaptation.
