Opposing roles of PlexinA and PlexinB in axonal branch and varicosity formation.

Molecular brain - 13 Apr 2011

Neufeld Shay Q, Hibbert Alexa D, Chen Brian E

Abstract excerpt

Establishing precise synaptic connectivity during development is crucial for neural circuit function. However, very few molecules have been identified that are involved in determining where and how many synapses form. The Plexin cell-surface molecules are a conserved family of axon guidance recep...
