Intra-axonal translation of Khsrp mRNA slows axon regeneration by destabilizing localized mRNAs

Priyanka Patel, Courtney N. Buchanan, Matthew D. Zdradzinski…·Jeffery L. Twiss

This study identifies KHSRP as an axonal RNA-binding protein whose mRNA is locally translated after nerve injury, leading to mRNA destabilization and slowed axon regeneration.

Selective axonal translation of prenylated Cdc42 mRNA isoform supports axon growth

Seung Joon Lee, Amar N. Kar, Matthew D. Zdradzinski…·Jeffery L. Twiss

The paper shows that prenyl-Cdc42 mRNA localizes to PNS axons and promotes axon growth through localized translation and prenylation.
