Subcellular and regional localization of mRNA translation in midbrain dopamine neurons

Using, highly sensitive ribosome-bound RNA sequencing and imaging to characterize the translatome, the authors uncovered local mRNA translation of dopamine synthesis, release, and reuptake machinery in dendrites, but not axons.

In vitro synthesis of PE2 (nCas9-MMLV RT fusion) polyA mRNA using T7 RNA polymerase

We describe the preparation of synthetic capped and polyadenylated messenger RNA (mRNA) encoding a Cas9 nickase-reverse transcriptase fusion protein (PE2) for use in genome editing with a method called prime editing.

Conserved and cell type-specific transcriptional responses to IFN-γ in the ventral midbrain

Neurons present antigens when exposed to IFN-γ, leading to MHC-I expression. IFN-γ induces MHC-I in neurons, glia, and microglia, with glia showing a stronger response. Neuronal response to IFN-γ is dependent on IFNGR signaling.
