    Prominin 1 and Tweety Homology 1 both induce extracellular vesicle formation

    Tristan A Bell, Bridget E Luce ... Luke H Chao
    1. Neuroscience

    A dystonia-like movement disorder with brain and spinal neuronal defects is caused by mutation of the mouse laminin β1 subunit, Lamb1

    Yi Bessie Liu, Ambika Tewari ... Kathleen J Sweadner
    A mouse with a defined mutation in an extracellular matrix protein that is expressed in selected neurons sheds light on circuit abnormalities producing transient hyperkinetic movements.

    Post-translational regulation of retinal IMPDH1 in vivo to adjust GTP synthesis to illumination conditions

    Anna Plana-Bonamaisó, Santiago López-Begines ... Ana Méndez
    The nucleotide sensing ability of IMPDH1 at the Bateman domain is regulated by light-dependent phosphorylation in the retina, to adjust GTP synthesis to illumination conditions.

    Molecular structures of the eukaryotic retinal importer ABCA4

    Fangyu Liu, James Lee, Jue Chen
    The structures of ABCA4 in two conformations provide a framework to understand its transport mechanism.

    High-throughput tracking enables systematic phenotyping and drug repurposing in C. elegans disease models

    Thomas J O'Brien, Ida L Barlow ... André EX Brown
    High-throughput animal tracking and quantitative behaviour analysis detects diverse phenotypes in genetic disease models at a scale that makes drug screens possible.

    Retinopathy of prematurity: Metabolic risk factors

    Zhongjie Fu, Anders K Nilsson ... Lois EH Smith
    An update for current knowledge gap in retinal metabolism after preterm birth and treatments for retinopathy of prematurity.

    ROM1 is redundant to PRPH2 as a molecular building block of photoreceptor disc rims

    Tylor R Lewis, Mustafa S Makia ... Muna I Naash
    The photoreceptor tetraspanin protein ROM1 contributes to the formation of light-sensitive 'disc' membranes, but it can be functionally replaced by an excess of its homologous binding partner PRPH2.
    1. Neuroscience

    Impaired ABCA1/ABCG1-mediated lipid efflux in the mouse retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) leads to retinal degeneration

    Federica Storti, Katrin Klee ... Christian Grimm
    Lipid efflux by the retinal pigment epithelium is crucial for proper retinal integrity and function, and its impairment may contribute to diseases like age-related macular degeneration.
    1. Neuroscience

    Alleviation of neuronal energy deficiency by mTOR inhibition as a treatment for mitochondria-related neurodegeneration

    Xinde Zheng, Leah Boyer ... Tony Hunter
    Rapamycin treatment inhibits mTOR activity and preserves ATP levels in neurons derived from induced pluripotent stem cells from a maternally inherited Leigh syndrome patient.

    Systematic proteomic analysis of LRRK2-mediated Rab GTPase phosphorylation establishes a connection to ciliogenesis

    Martin Steger, Federico Diez ... Matthias Mann
    Parkinson's kinase LRRK2 phosphorylates a distinct subset of Rabs, and LRRK2-dependent phosphorylation links LRKK2 to ciliogenesis.
