Neurotransmission
- Extracellular heparan sulfate proteoglycans and glycan-binding lectins orchestrate trans-synaptic signaling
Summary: A Review of the multitude of extracellular proteoglycans, glycan-binding lectins and secreted enzymes regulating trans-synaptic signaling at the Drosophila neuromuscular junction.
- BAR-SH3 sorting nexins are conserved interacting proteins of Nervous wreck that organize synapses and promote neurotransmission
Summary: A loss-of-function study of the SNX9, SNX18 and SNX33 homolog SH3PX1 in Drosophila reveals a new role in the development of presynaptic active zones and regulation of neurotransmitter release.
