RNA-binding proteins and translational regulation in axons and growth cones

RNA-binding proteins and translational regulation in axons and growth cones

RNA localization and regulation play an important role in the developing and adult nervous system. In navigating axons, extrinsic cues can elicit rapid local protein synthesis that mediate directional or morphological responses. The mRNA repertoire in axons is large and dynamically changing, yet stu...
