    Alzheimer’s disease linked Aβ42 exerts product feedback inhibition on γ-secretase impairing downstream cell signaling

    Katarzyna Marta Zoltowska, Utpal Das ... Lucía Chávez-Gutiérrez
    A novel Aβ-driven inhibitory mechanism on γ-secretases, which leads to substrate accumulation and reduced release of products, contributes to neurotoxicity by impairing γ-secretase signaling and might operate in Alzheimer’s disease.

    Hsp47 promotes biogenesis of multi-subunit neuroreceptors in the endoplasmic reticulum

    Ya-Juan Wang, Xiao-Jing Di ... Ting-Wei Mu
    Hsp47 positively regulates the functional surface expression of endogenous GABAA receptors and plays a critical and general role in the maturation of Cys-loop neuroreceptors.

    Enrichment of rare codons at 5' ends of genes is a spandrel caused by evolutionary sequence turnover and does not improve translation

    Richard Sejour, Janet Leatherwood ... Bruce Futcher
    The 5' ends of genes are slightly enriched for rare codons largely because the ends turnover in evolution and gather rare codons, and these rare codons do not improve translation.

    Human DDX6 regulates translation and decay of inefficiently translated mRNAs

    Ramona Weber, Chung-Te Chang
    DDX6 triggers inefficiently translated mRNA decay by interacting with the ribosome through its FDF motif via the 5'-3' mRNA decay pathway.
