Methylation of 12S rRNA is necessary for in vivo stability of the small subunit of the mammalian mitochondrial ribosome.

TL;DR: The results thus show that TFB1M is a nonredundant dimethyltransferase in mammalian mitochondria and provide a possible explanation for the universal conservation of adenine dimethylation of rRNA by showing a critical role in ribosome maintenance.

Mutations in SLC12A5 in epilepsy of infancy with migrating focal seizures

TL;DR: Rec recessive loss-of-function SLC12A5 mutations in patients with a severe infantile-onset pharmacoresistant epilepsy syndrome, epilepsy of infancy with migrating focal seizures (EIMFS), contribute to loss of KCC2 activity, thereby impairing normal synaptic inhibition and promoting neuronal excitability in this early-ONSet epileptic encephalopathy.
