Figure 1: CPG15 expression in tectal neurons increases growth of presynaptic retinotectal axons. Figure 2: Growth rates of complex axons are selectively affected by CPG15. In summary, postsynaptic ...

A research group led by Specially appointed professor, Dr. Tatsuo Suzuki of Shinshu University School of Medicine developed a new purification protocol for Postsynaptic density (PSD) lattice, a core ...

A research team revealed in an animal study a previously unknown role of a presynaptic adhesion molecule to tell the new change by regulating postsynaptic NMDA-type receptor responses at excitatory ...

Synapses in the forebrain were thought of as purely GABAergic, yet they contain minute numbers of glycine receptors, often in the single digits.

Representative cryo-electron microscopy image: a coloured image of the 3D structure of gephyrin, which was calculated from the data. A team of scientists from the University of Cologne’s Institute of ...

Postsynaptic Simulator transforms principles about neuronal activation into a fun game. The app is divided into eight different levels, each of which describes a different objective to the user. Each ...

A protein that appears in postsynaptic protein agglomerations has been found to be crucial to their formation. The Kobe University discovery identifies a new key player for synaptic function and sheds ...
