Tumor overexpressed gene (TOG) protein, encoded by cytoskeleton-associated protein
CKAP5, is a microtubule-associated protein that binds to heterogeneous nuclear …

Messenger ribonucleoprotein (mRNP) granules are dynamic, self-assembling structures that
harbor non-translating mRNAs bound by various proteins that regulate mRNA translation …

Regulated protein biosynthesis in dendrites of neurons might be a key mechanism
underlying learning and memory. Neuronal dendritic BC1 RNA and BC200 RNA and similar …

The phenomenon of mRNA sorting to defined subcellular domains is observed in diverse
organisms such as yeast and man. It is now becoming increasingly clear that specific …

Abstract The 3′-untranslated region (UTR) of the myelin basic protein (MBP) mRNA has
been found previously to enhance the translational efficiency of the coding region by two …

Neuronal cells rely on macro-and micro-cellular compartmentalization to rapidly process
information, and respond locally to external stimuli. Such a cellular organization is achieved …

Spatial restriction of mRNA to distinct subcellular locations enables local regulation and
synthesis of proteins. However, the organizing principles of mRNA localization remain …

In neurons, regulation of gene expression occurs in part through translational control at the
synapse. A fundamental requirement for such local control is the targeted delivery of select …

This is the Night Mail crossing the border, Bringing the cheque and the postal order, Letters
for the rich, letters for the poor, The shop at the corner, the girl next door.—WH Auden An …

Localization of mRNAs to postsynaptic sites and their subsequent translation is thought to
contribute to synapse-specific plasticity. However, the direct visualization of dendritic RNA …
