The genetics of axonal transport and axonal transport disorders.

PLoS genetics - 29 Sept 2006

Duncan Jason E, Goldstein Lawrence S B

Abstract excerpt

Neurons are specialized cells with a complex architecture that includes elaborate dendritic branches and a long, narrow axon that extends from the cell body to the synaptic terminal. The organized transport of essential biological materials throughout the neuron is required to support its growth, function, and viability. In this review, we focus on insights that have emerged from the genetic analysis of...
