LINE-1 retrotransposons regulate the exit of human pluripotency and early brain development (Preprint)

Hominoid-specific L1 retrotransposons are expressed in human stem cells and organoids. Silencing L1s leads to changes in neural differentiation and organoid size, suggesting L1 involvement in central nervous system development.

L1 retrotransposons drive human neuronal transcriptome complexity and functional diversification

The genetic mechanisms underlying the expansion in size and complexity of the human brain remains poorly understood. L1 retrotransposons are a source of divergent genetic information in hominoid genomes, but their importance in physiological…

The annotation of GBA1 has been concealed by its protein-coding pseudogene GBAP1

The authors identify novel transcripts from both GBA1 and GBAP1, including protein-coding transcripts that are translated in vitro and detected in proteomic data, but that lack GCase activity.

Genome-wide determinants of mortality and motor progression in Parkinson’s disease

The authors examined the impact of gene variants on mortality and cognitive impairment in PD. Only the non-Gaucher disease causing GBA PD risk variant E326K, of the known PD risk variants, was associated with progression in PD.
