title: JAKMIP1: Translating the Message for Social Behavior.
abstract: In this issue of Neuron, Berg et al. (2015) uncover multifaceted roles for janus kinase and microtubule-interacting protein 1 (JAKMIP1) in regulating neuronal mRNA translation and establish JAKMIP1 knockout mice as an important model to study autism spectrum disorder-associated phenotypes.
