To isolate mutants that affect projection neuron dendritic and axonal morphogenesis, we carried out a MARCM-based forward genetic screen (Supplementary Methods online). We used the Gal4-GH146 driver, ...

The neuronal cytoskeleton is functionally specialized within distinct compartments; local differences in cytoskeletal organization regulate local traffic patterns. In axons, the axon initial segment ...

You probably think of your nervous system as a kind of computer network, or some kind of electrical system that passes nerve impulses around. But in reality, the miraculous journey of a signal ...
