RACK1 is necessary for the formation of point contacts and regulates axon growth.

Developmental neurobiology - 1 Sept 2017

Kershner Leah, Welshhans Kristy

Abstract excerpt

Receptor for activated C kinase 1 (RACK1) is a multifunctional ribosomal scaffolding protein that can interact with multiple signaling molecules concurrently through its seven WD40 repeats. We recently found that RACK1 is localized to mammalian growth cones, prompting an investigation into its role during neural development. Here, we show for the first time that RACK1 localizes to point contacts within mouse...
