TL;DR: In this paper, the authors defined a common core of mammalian Mediator subunits shared by alternative forms that variably associate with the kinase module and RNA polymerase (pol) II.
Abstract: Components of multiprotein complexes are routinely determined by using proteomic approaches. However, this information lacks functional content except when new complex members are identified. To analyze quantitatively the abundance of proteins in human Mediator we used normalized spectral abundance factors generated from shotgun proteomics data sets. With this approach we define a common core of mammalian Mediator subunits shared by alternative forms that variably associate with the kinase module and RNA polymerase (pol) II. Although each version of affinity-purified Mediator contained some kinase module and RNA pol II, Mediator purified through F-Med26 contained the most RNA pol II and the least kinase module as demonstrated by the normalized spectral abundance factor approach. The distinct forms of Mediator were functionally characterized by using a transcriptional activity assay, where F-Med26 Mediator/RNA pol II was the most active. This method of protein complex visualization has important implications for the analysis of multiprotein complexes and assembly of protein interaction networks.

TL;DR: Chronic high‐frequency stimulation of the ventral intermedius nucleus of the thalamus is safe and highly effective in ameliorating essential and parkinsonian tremor and measures of function were significantly improved in patients with essential tremor.
Abstract: Pharmacologic treatment for essential tremor and the tremor of Parkinson's disease is often inadequate. Stereotaxic surgery, such as thalamotomy, can effectively reduce tremors. We performed a multicenter trial of unilateral high-frequency stimulation of the ventral intermedius nucleus of the thalamus in 29 patients with essential tremor and 24 patients with Parkinson's disease, using a blinded assessment at 3 months after surgery to compare clinical rating of tremor with stimulation ON with stimulation OFF and baseline and a 1-year follow-up. Six patients were not implanted because of lack of intraoperative tremor suppression (2 patients), hemorrhage (2 patients), withdrawal of consent (1 patient), and persistent microthalamotomy effect (1 patient). A significant reduction in both essential and parkinsonian tremor occurred contralaterally with stimulation. Patients reported a significant reduction in disability. Measures of function were significantly improved in patients with essential tremor. Complications related to surgery in implanted patients were few. Stimulation was commonly associated with transient paresthesias. Other adverse effects were mild and well tolerated. Efficacy was not reduced at 1 year. Chronic high-frequency stimulation is safe and highly effective in ameliorating essential and parkinsonian tremor.
