A Peroxiredoxin Promotes H2O2 Signaling and Oxidative Stress Resistance by Oxidizing a Thioredoxin Family Protein

open access: yesCell Reports, 2013
H2O2 can cause oxidative damage associated with age-related diseases such as diabetes and cancer but is also used to initiate diverse responses, including increased antioxidant gene expression.

Place, space and memory cells [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2012
SummarySelf-localization and navigation are critical functions for the survival of mobile animals. By processing sensory information such as landmarks and environmental features, as well as keeping track of the path they have taken, animals are able to remain oriented as they explore the world, learning what resources are where and planning how to ...

Cl-out is a novel cooperative optogenetic tool for extruding chloride from neurons

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Chloride regulation is important for setting GABAergic reversal potential, though tools to manipulate chloride levels are limited. Here, the authors combine Archaerhodopsin with a chloride channel opsin to generate an optogenetic chloride extrusion ...

Engineered kinesin motor proteins amenable to small-molecule inhibition

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
The use of specific small molecule inhibitors can contribute to the study of kinesins' cellular functions. Here the authors develop a chemical-genetic approach to engineer kinesin motors that can be efficiently inhibited upon addition of cell-permeable ...

Extracting grid cell characteristics from place cell inputs using non-negative principal component analysis

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Many recent models study the downstream projection from grid cells to place cells, while recent data have pointed out the importance of the feedback projection. We thus asked how grid cells are affected by the nature of the input from the place cells. We

Structural basis of meiotic telomere attachment to the nuclear envelope by MAJIN-TERB2-TERB1

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The meiotic telomere complex (MAJIN, TERB1, TERB2) tethers telomere ends to the nuclear envelope. Here the authors present the crystal structure of human MAJIN-TERB2 and combine biophysical approaches and structured illumination microscopy analysis of ...

Hierarchical organization of context in the hippocampal episodic code

open access: yeseLife, 2013
The hippocampal system appears to be critically important in establishing episodic memory of both internal and external events within contexts as well as spatial memory, which enables flexible spatial navigation.

Rigid firing sequences undermine spatial memory codes in a neurodegenerative mouse model

open access: yeseLife, 2013
Hippocampal neurons encode spatial memories by firing at specific locations. As the animal traverses a spatial trajectory, individual locations along the trajectory activate these neurons in a unique firing sequence, which yields a memory code ...

Prefrontal synaptic activation during hippocampal memory reactivation

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Summary: Cooperative reactivation of hippocampal and prefrontal neurons is considered crucial for mnemonic processes. To directly record synaptic substances supporting the interregional interactions, we develop concurrent spike recordings of hippocampal ...
