Activity-dependent synthesis of translational machinery through dynamic remodeling of ribonucleoprotein granules

Toshiharu Ichinose, Mai Kanno, Takashi T Makino, Yuichi Shichino, Shintaro Iwasaki, Hiromu Tanimoto

The paper uses optogenetic stimulation and Ribo-seq in Drosophila to show that neuronal activity triggers two phases of translation: one for synaptic factors and another for ribosomal proteins, regulated by TOP motifs and La-related protein.

An Innate Immune Receptor Toll-1 converts chronic light stress into glial-phagocytosis

Jiro Osaka, Toshiharu Ichinose, Mai Kanno, Satoko Hakeda‐Suzuki, Takashi Suzuki, Atsushi Sugie

This study identifies a neuron-glia signaling axis where Toll-1 converts chronic light stress into glial-phagocytosis, leading to axonal degeneration.

Translational regulation enhances distinction of cell types in the nervous system

Toshiharu Ichinose, Shu Kondo, Mai Kanno, Yuichi Shichino, Mari Mito, Shintaro Iwasaki, Hiromu Tanimoto

The paper shows that translational regulation, particularly through 5' leader uORFs, enhances cell-type distinction in the Drosophila nervous system by preferentially translating neuronal proteins in neurons.
