457 Top3β is an RNA topoisomerase that works with fragile X syndrome protein to promote synapse formation.

456 By examining the genetic makeup of Northern Finnish sub-isolate populations, Stoll et al. show association between deletion of a topoisomerase III gene (TOP3B) and both schizophrenia and cognitive impairment. They also uncover a mechanism for the concomitant integration of TOP3β with the fragile X protein FMRP into messenger ribonucleoprotein complexes.

455 Germline mitochondrial DNA mutations aggravate ageing and can impair brain development.

454 The authors present a human pluripotent stem cell-derived three-dimensional organoid culture system that is able to recapitulate several aspects of human brain development in addition to modelling the brain disorder microcephaly, which has been difficult to achieve using mouse models.
