Neuronal Development: Sorting out Motor Neurons
In the developing spinal cord, motor neurons become segregated into important functional units termed motor pools. Now it has been discovered that repertoires of cadherin surface molecules play key roles in motor pool sorting.
متن کاملNeuronal Development: Putting Motor Neurons in Their Place
In the developing spinal cord, motor neurons occupy discrete columns with different identities and axon projections. This organisation has now been shown to depend crucially on sequential phases of expression of Hox-c proteins, generated in response to fibroblast growth factor signals.

Sorting Neuronal Proteins: Lessons from Epithelial Cells At an anatomical level, the polarities of neurons and epithelial cells appear quite different. In a motor neuron, a meter or more often separates axon terminals from David S.

متن کاملExpression of the mitotic motor protein Eg5 in postmitotic neurons: implications for neuronal development.
It is well established that the microtubules of the mitotic spindle are organized by a variety of motor proteins, and it appears that the same motors or closely related variants organize microtubules in the postmitotic neuron. Specifically, cytoplasmic dynein and the kinesin-related motor known as CHO1/MKLP1 are used within the mitotic spindle, and recent studies suggest that they are also esse...
متن کاملSorting Out Sound
Speech analysis is a prototypical categorical mechanism that has been examined behaviorally in work going back to Haskins Laboratory studies in the 1950s: such work examined the perception of continua between phonemes and demonstrated sharp discontinuities consistent with categorical perception. In this issue of Neuron, Raizada and Poldrack examine analysis mechanisms for such processing by mea...
