Synaptophysin regulates activity-dependent synapse formation in cultured hippocampal neurons.
Synaptophysin is an abundant synaptic vesicle protein without a definite synaptic function. Here, we examined a role for synaptophysin in synapse formation in mixed genotype micro-island cultures of wild-type and synaptophysin-mutant hippocampal neurons. We show that synaptophysin-mutant synapses are poor donors of presynaptic terminals in the presence of competing wild-type inputs. In homogeno...
متن کاملAbnormal synapse formation in agrin-depleted hippocampal neurons.
Agrin, a 200 kDa extracellular matrix protein, participates in the maturation of the postsynaptic target at the neuromuscular junction. Although agrin has also been detected in central neurons, little is known about its role in the formation of their synapses. In the present study, the pattern of expression, localization and function of agrin in developing hippocampal neurons were analyzed. The...
متن کاملMultiple Autopoly ( ADP - ribosy 1 ) ation of Rat Liver Poly ( ADP - ribose ) Synthetase MODE
Poly(ADP4bose) synthetase of rat liver was found to catalyze automodification on multiple sites. When the synthetase was incubated with 2.4 p~ NAD for 20 s in the presence of DNA, more than 90% of ADP ribose incorporated into acid-insoluble material co-migrated with the synthetase (Mr = 108,000) upon sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Incubation for longer times or at hi...
متن کاملTankyrase, a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase at human telomeres.
Tankyrase, a protein with homology to ankyrins and to the catalytic domain of poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP), was identified and localized to human telomeres. Tankyrase binds to the telomeric protein TRF1 (telomeric repeat binding factor-1), a negative regulator of telomere length maintenance. Like ankyrins, tankyrase contains 24 ankyrin repeats in a domain responsible for...
متن کاملMonitoring neurite morphology and synapse formation in primary neurons for neurotoxicity assessments and drug screening
Synapse formation during nervous system development and degeneration in the pathogenesis of human neurological diseases are highly regulated processes. Subtle changes in the environment of the complex neuronal network may cause either breakdown or creation of synaptic connections. Drug discovery screening for neurological diseases and compound neurotoxicity evaluation would benefit from robust,...
