This study shows that 5hmC-mediated active demethylation is essential for neuronal differentiation and function in Purkinje cells.

This study uses live-cell imaging to show MeCP2 has unique diffusion and chromatin binding kinetics in neurons, distinct from transcription factors and histones.

The paper identifies molecular differences between rodent and human neuronal and glial cell types using gene expression and epigenetic data from postmortem human brains.
