    Loss of N1-methylation of G37 in tRNA induces ribosome stalling and reprograms gene expression

    Isao Masuda, Jae-Yeon Hwang ... Ya-Ming Hou
    Biochemical and genome-wide analysis demonstrates that m1G37 is important for tRNA aminoacylation and for the entire elongation cycle of protein synthesis.

    Co-targeting the tumor endothelium and P-selectin-expressing glioblastoma cells leads to a remarkable therapeutic outcome

    Shiran Ferber, Galia Tiram ... Ronit Satchi-Fainaro
    Treatment with precision nanomedicine in combination with an anti-angiogenic peptide enhance anti-tumor efficacy while minimizing toxicities in a pre-clinical glioblastoma model, making this approach a promising and important therapeutic alternative for patients.

    Astrocyte GluN2C NMDA receptors control basal synaptic strengths of hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons in the stratum radiatum

    Peter H Chipman, Chi Chung Alan Fung ... Yukiko Goda
    Electrophysiology experiments with genetic and pharmacological manipulations identify a role for astrocyte GluN2C NMDA receptors in maintaining the broad range of presynaptic strengths, which is suggested by numerical simulations to enhance the expression of synaptic plasticity.

    3D in situ imaging of the female reproductive tract reveals molecular signatures of fertilizing spermatozoa in mice

    Lukas Ded, Jae Yeon Hwang ... Jean-Ju Chung
    Fertilizing mouse spermatozoa, characterized by intact CatSper channels, lack of protein tyrosine phosphorylation, and reacted acrosomes, in the female reproductive tract provide molecular insight into sperm selection for successful fertilization.

    Putting the theory into ‘burstlet theory’ with a biophysical model of burstlets and bursts in the respiratory preBötzinger complex

    Ryan S Phillips, Jonathan E Rubin
    A calcium-based mechanism of neural recruitment offers a biophysical framework that unifies recent findings on respiratory rhythm generation and pattern formation by the circuitry within the brainstem.

    The SARS-CoV-2 accessory protein Orf3a is not an ion channel, but does interact with trafficking proteins

    Alexandria N Miller, Patrick R Houlihan ... David E Clapham
    SARS coronaviruses encode several mysterious proteins such as Orf3a and, in contrast to what has been claimed, Orf3a is not an ion channel but rather disrupts cellular trafficking by binding to the protein sorting complex known as HOPS.

    Neuroinflammation in neuronopathic Gaucher disease: Role of microglia and NK cells, biomarkers, and response to substrate reduction therapy

    Chandra Sekhar Boddupalli, Shiny Nair ... Pramod K Mistry
    In neurodegeneration of Gaucher disease, glucosylceramides trigger neuroinflammation via attrition of homeostatic microglia and transition to lipid-laden damage-associated microglia concurrently with infiltration of diverse immune cells including activated NK cells and CCR2+ macrophages, ameliorated by substrate reduction therapy.

    Lipid accumulation controls the balance between surface connection and scission of caveolae

    Madlen Hubert, Elin Larsson ... Richard Lundmark
    Caveolae sense the membrane lipid composition, which influences their dynamic behavior at the cell surface.
