Regulation of postsynaptic structure and protein localization by the Rho-type guanine nucleotide exchange factor dPix.

Neuron - 8 Nov 2001

Parnas D, Haghighi A P, Fetter R D, Kim S W, Goodman C S

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in dpix were recovered from a large-scale screen in Drosophila for genes that control synaptic structure. dpix encodes dPix, a Rho-type guanine nucleotide exchange factor (RtGEF) homologous to mammalian Pix. Here we show that dPix plays a major role in regulating postsynaptic structure...
