Myelin basic protein is an RNA chaperone in microglial nuclear retro-transport

Guy Lam, Zhaoyang Xu, Adrien M. Vaquie…·David H. Rowitch

The paper identifies myelin basic protein (MBP) as an RNA chaperone that facilitates microglial nuclear import of myelin RNA, with implications for multiple sclerosis pathology.

A release-and-capture mechanism generates an essential non-centrosomal microtubule array during tube budding

Ghislain Gillard, Gemma C. Girdler, Katja Röper

The paper identifies a release-and-capture mechanism involving Katanin and Patronin that generates a non-centrosomal microtubule array essential for tube budding in Drosophila salivary glands.
