SynGAP Controls Synapse Formation by Regulating Spine Development and Morphology

SynGAP Controls Synapse Formation by Regulating Spine Development and Morphology

SynGAP is a brain-specific Ras GTPase-activating protein that is an abundant component of the signaling complex associated with the NMDA-type glutamate receptor. We generated mutant mice lacking synGAP to study its physiological role. Homozygous mutant mice die in the first few days after birth; how...
