Neurotransmitters are released by synaptic vesicle exocytosis at the active zone of a
presynaptic nerve terminal. In this review, I discuss the molecular composition and function …

Synapse development requires differentiation of presynaptic neurotransmitter release sites
and postsynaptic receptive apparatus coordinated by synapse organizing proteins. In …

Abstract N 6-methyladenosine RNA (m6A) is a prevalent messenger RNA modification in
vertebrates. Although its functions in the regulation of post-transcriptional gene expression …

Protein subcellular localization is fundamental to the establishment of the body axis, cell
migration, synaptic plasticity, and a vast range of other biological processes. Protein …

The synapse is the most elementary operating unit in neurons, creating neural circuits that
underlie all brain functions. Synaptic adhesion molecules initiate neuronal synapse …

Synapses are the sites of neuron-to-neuron communication and form the basis of the neural
circuits that underlie all animal cognition and behavior. Chemical synapses are specialized …

PPFIA3 encodes the protein-tyrosine phosphatase, receptor-type, F-polypeptide-interacting-
protein-alpha-3 (PPFIA3), which is a member of the LAR-protein-tyrosine phosphatase …

Regulated neurotransmitter release from presynaptic boutons is crucial for the functioning of
chemical synapses, what in turn governs the functional performance of the nervous system …

Synapse formation is a highly regulated process that requires the coordination of many cell
biological events. Decades of research have identified a long list of molecular components …

The presynaptic active zone mediates synaptic vesicle exocytosis, and modulation of its
molecular composition is important for many types of synaptic plasticity. Here, we identify …
