DSCAM differentially modulates pre- and postsynaptic structural and functional central connectivity during visual system wiring

Abstract Background Proper patterning of dendritic and axonal arbors is a critical step in the formation of functional neuronal circuits. Developing circuits rely on an array of molecular cues to shape arbor morphology, but the underlying mechanisms guiding the structural formation and interconnecti...
