MeCP2 gates spatial learning-induced alternative splicing events in the mouse hippocampus by David V. C. Brito, Kubra Gulmez Karaca, Janina Kupke, Lukas Frank, Ana M. M. Oliveira

“…DNA methylation writers and readers regulate the activity-dependent genomic program required for memory consolidation. The most abundant DNA methylation reader, the Methyl CpG binding domain protein 2 (MeCP2), has been shown to regulate alternative splicing, but whether it establishes splicing events important for memory consolidation has not been investigated. …”

The integrated stress response effector GADD34 is repurposed by neurons to promote stimulus-induced translation by Mauricio M. Oliveira, Muhaned Mohamed, Megan K. Elder, Keylin Banegas-Morales, Maggie Mamcarz, Emily H. Lu, Ela A.N. Golhan, Nishika Navrange, Snehajyoti Chatterjee, Ted Abel, Eric Klann

“…Summary: Neuronal protein synthesis is required for long-lasting plasticity and long-term memory consolidation. Dephosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor 2α is one of the key translational control events that is required to increase de novo protein synthesis that underlies long-lasting plasticity and memory consolidation. …”
