An immune factor in the brain plays critical roles in neuron function and aging

Broad Institute

A new study reveals that C1q can also enter neurons, where it influences protein production, and can accumulate within neurons over time. They also suggest that C1q influences learning, memory, and flexibility in the adult brain, potentially by interacting with specific complexes within neurons that impact protein production.

Structural biology: Molecular scissors caught in the act

SCIENMAG: Medicine & Health

Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are among the most common types of RNA in a cell and are indispensable for protein production in all known organisms.

Scientists pinpoint where thousands of individual proteins are made in intact tissue and single cells

Broad Institute

They found key differences between where mRNAs are made and where the corresponding proteins are being translated in several cell types, suggesting that cells are regulating translation in ways that existing transcriptomic methods, which analyze mRNA production, aren’t able to detect. By Sarah C.P. and Virginia W.
