Gamma-protocadherin Cis- and Trans-interactions regulate the development of dendrite arbors and synapses in the cerebral cortex

Gamma-protocadherin Cis- and Trans-interactions regulate the development of dendrite arbors and synapses in the cerebral cortex

The alpha-, beta-, and gamma-Protocadherins (gamma-Pcdhs) are cadherin superfamily adhesion molecules encoded by clustered gene families. The 22 gamma-Pcdhs are combinatorially expressed in the central nervous system (CNS) by neurons and astrocytes, and play critical roles in synaptogenesis, dendrit...
