Journal ArticleDOI

G–quadruplex RNA structure as a signal for neurite mRNA targeting

TL;DR: The G– quadruplex structure is necessary and sufficient for the potent and fast localization of mRNAs in cortical neurites and this occurs in a metabotropic glutamate receptor‐responsive manner, and G–quadruplex seems to be a common neurite localization signal.
Journal ArticleDOI

The lipid phosphatase myotubularin is essential for skeletal muscle maintenance but not for myogenesis in mice

TL;DR: It is demonstrated, through a conditional gene-targeting approach, that skeletal muscle is the primary target of murine XLMTM pathology, and it is shown that muscle differentiation in knockout mice occurs normally, contrary to expectations.
Journal ArticleDOI

A close relative of the adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) gene codes for a peroxisomal protein with a specific expression pattern

TL;DR: The cloning and characterization of a mouse ALD-related gene (ALDR) is described, which codes for a protein with 66% identity with ALDP and shares the same half transporter structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Origin of the expansion mutation in myotonic dystrophy.

TL;DR: The results strongly suggest that the initial predisposing event of myotonic dystrophy consisted of a transition from a (CTG)5 allele to anallele with 19 to 30 repeats, which may constitute a reservoir for recurrent DM mutations.
