RNA transport in dendrites: a cis-acting targeting element is contained within neuronal BC1 RNA.
In nerve cells, a select group of RNAs has been localized to dendritic domains. Here we have examined dendritic RNA transport in sympathetic neurons in primary culture, using a microinjection protocol with neuronal BC1 RNA and with BC1-derived sequence segments. After cytoplasmic microinjection, full-length BC1 RNA was selectively transported to dendrites; in contrast, control RNAs such as nucl...
متن کاملTransport of Neuronal BC1 RNA in Mauthner Axons.
In neurons, localized RNAs have been identified in dendrites and axons; however, RNA transport in axons remains poorly understood. Here we analyzed axonal RNA transport in goldfish Mauthner neurons in vivo. BC1 RNA, a noncoding RNA polymerase III transcript that is targeted to dendrites in neurons of the rodent nervous system, was used as a probe for axonal RNA transport. Somata of Mauthner neu...
متن کاملNeuronal untranslated BC1 RNA: targeted gene elimination in mice.
Despite the potentially important roles of untranslated RNAs in cellular form or function, genes encoding such RNAs have until now received surprisingly little attention. One such gene encodes BC1 RNA, a small non-mRNA that is delivered to dendritic microdomains in neurons. We have now eliminated the BC1 RNA gene in mice. Three independent founder lines were established from separate embryonic ...
متن کاملBC1 RNA motifs required for dendritic transport in vivo
BC1 RNA is a small brain specific non-protein coding RNA. It is transported from the cell body into dendrites where it is involved in the fine-tuning translational control. Due to its compactness and established secondary structure, BC1 RNA is an ideal model for investigating the motifs necessary for dendritic localization. Previously, microinjection of in vitro transcribed BC1 RNA mutants into...
متن کاملTransport of BC1 RNA in hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal axons.
Ample evidence indicates that in nerve cells, several individual proteins are locally synthesized in postsynaptic domains in dendrites. By contrast, axonal terminals, at least in mammals, are generally thought to lack protein synthetic capacity. However, axonal nerve endings of the hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal tract have recently been shown to contain mRNAs encoding vasopressin, oxytocin, dynor...
