Lighting up FGFR signaling.
In this issue of Chemistry & Biology, Kim and colleagues describe their work on optogenetic control of fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) signaling. By engineering a chimeric receptor, the authors demonstrate that FGFR intracellular signaling can be controlled in space and time by blue light.
متن کاملGFP: Lighting up life.
I want to thank the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences and the Nobel Foundation for this amazing and surprising honor. At first I wondered why I, a biologist and a person with less than enviable college grades in chemistry, had been selected. Then I realized that this prize had actually been given to the GFP molecule, and I am one of its assistants. Thank you for letting me be part of the celebr...
متن کاملPresynaptic mechanism underlying cAMP-dependent synaptic potentiation.
The adenylyl cyclase activator forskolin presynaptically facilitates synaptic transmission at many synapses, but the exact intracellular mechanism underlying this effect is not known. We studied this issue at the calyx of Held, where it is possible to make simultaneous presynaptic and postsynaptic whole-cell recordings. Bath application of forskolin or intracellular application of cAMP into pre...
متن کاملPresynaptic long-term potentiation in corticothalamic synapses.
The thalamus and neocortex are two highly organized and complex brain structures that work in concert with each other. The largest synaptic input to the thalamus arrives from the neocortex via corticothalamic fibers. Using brain slices, we describe long-term potentiation (LTP) in corticothalamic fibers contacting the ventrobasal thalamus. Corticothalamic LTP is input-specific, NMDA receptor-ind...
متن کاملPresynaptic Expression of Long-Term Potentiation
methods that allow high spatial resolution challenge the notion of an entirely postsynaptic locus of expression. By directly visualizing presynaptic release at individual CA1 synapses using FM1-43, Zakharenko et al. (51) observed enhanced rates of synaptic vesicle recycling following induction of a form of LTP that depends on both NMDA receptor and L-type Ca2+ channel activation. Within the sam...
