The paper shows that single-molecule bouncing at a presynaptic interface enables protein enrichment without slowing diffusion.

The paper shows spectrin condensates facilitate the formation of the periodic axonal structure by acting as local assembly hubs that later develop into a stable lattice.

The paper uses CRISPR-Cas9 to edit the App gene in mice, reducing Alzheimer's disease symptoms and showing long-term benefits.

This study shows that phosphorylation of α-synuclein at Serine-129 is a physiologic trigger for protein interactions and synaptic function, challenging its previous association with pathology.

The paper identifies the synapsin E-domain as essential for α-synuclein function, showing it binds to α-synuclein and is necessary for its synaptic effects.

The paper shows that the Habc domain of syntaxin is required for Unc18 to open, enabling SNARE complex formation in synaptic transmission.
