Unique luminal localization of VGAT-C terminus allows for selective labeling of active cortical GABAergic synapses.

Dec 2008 Neurotransmitter uptake into synaptic vesicles is mediated by vesicular neurotransmitter transporters. Although these transporters belong to different families, they all are thought to share a common overall topology with an even number of ... Read more...

A crucial role for primary cilia in cortical morphogenesis.

24 Nov 2008 Primary cilia are important sites of signal transduction involved in a wide range of developmental and postnatal functions. Proteolytic processing of the transcription factor Gli3, for example, occurs in primary cilia, and defects in intraflagellar ... Read more...

Natural antisense transcripts are co-expressed with sense mRNAs in synaptoneurosomes of adult mouse forebrain.

2 Sep 2008 Natural antisense transcripts and overlapping sense transcripts are expressed in a variety of tissues, including adult mouse brain. Here we show that a subset of mRNA-like sense-antisense transcript pairs are co-expressed within synaptoneurosomes of ... Read more...
