    A role for cerebellum in the hereditary dystonia DYT1

    Rachel Fremont, Ambika Tewari ... Kamran Khodakhah
    The most common inherited dystonia, DYT1, is likely caused primarily by the dysfunction of the cerebellum rather than the basal ganglia.

    Slowing the body slows down time perception

    Rose De Kock, Weiwei Zhou ... Martin Wiener
    The perception of time is influenced by movement environments, with slower movements associated with shorter perceived time intervals.

    Stable G protein-effector complexes in striatal neurons: mechanism of assembly and role in neurotransmitter signaling

    Keqiang Xie, Ikuo Masuho ... Kirill A Martemyanov
    A G protein in striatal neurons forms preassembled complexes with its downstream enzyme, adenylyl cyclase, which has implications for the pathophysiology of movement disorders.

    Intramuscular Neurotrophin-3 normalizes low threshold spinal reflexes, reduces spasms and improves mobility after bilateral corticospinal tract injury in rats

    Claudia Kathe, Thomas Haynes Hutson ... Lawrence David Falcon Moon
    Delayed intramuscular gene therapy with neurotrophin-3 after corticospinal tract injury reduces spasticity and improves locomotion by treating underlying causes of spasticity.

    Structural basis of αE-catenin–F-actin catch bond behavior

    Xiao-Ping Xu, Sabine Pokutta ... William I Weis
    A molecular mechanism for force-dependent binding of the cell adhesion proteins αE-catenin and vinculin to actin is derived from the structure of the αE-catenin actin-binding domain bound to F-actin.

    Phosphorylation, disorder, and phase separation govern the behavior of Frequency in the fungal circadian clock

    Daniyal Tariq, Nicole Maurici ... Brian R Crane
    The intrinsic disorder of the circadian clock protein Frequency organizes binding partners, facilitates liquid–liquid phase separation, modulates Frequency phosphorylation, and derives from sequence properties conserved with homologous clock components.

    Pi-Pi contacts are an overlooked protein feature relevant to phase separation

    Robert McCoy Vernon, Paul Andrew Chong ... Julie Deborah Forman-Kay
    Statistics on the frequencies of pi interactions in folded protein structures enable successful prediction of intrinsically disordered protein phase separation, with clear implications for a physical understanding of cellular organization.

    An engineered monomer binding-protein for α-synuclein efficiently inhibits the proliferation of amyloid fibrils

    Emil Dandanell Agerschou, Patrick Flagmeier ... Alexander K Buell
    The high affinity α-synuclein-monomer binder AS69 converts into a strong sub-stoichiometric inhibitor of nucleation processes upon formation of the AS69-α-synuclein complex, achieving reduced aggregation in vitro and in vivo.

    Neuronal glutamate transporters control reciprocal inhibition and gain modulation in D1 medium spiny neurons

    Maurice A Petroccione, Lianna Y D'Brant ... Annalisa Scimemi
    The neuronal glutamate transporter EAAC1 limits excitation and lateral inhibition between D1-MSNs, which are important for the execution of slow-switching flexible behaviors.

    Increased theta/alpha synchrony in the habenula-prefrontal network with negative emotional stimuli in human patients

    Yongzhi Huang, Bomin Sun ... Huiling Tan
    Increased theta/alpha band activities within the habenula area and the prefrontal cortex, as well as the increased synchrony between the two structures in the same frequency band can serve as an indicator for negative emotions in humans.
