Distinct role of 5′UTR sequences in dendritic trafficking of BDNF mRNA: additional mechanisms for the BDNF splice variants spatial code
12 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
The neurotrophin Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is encoded by multiple bipartite transcripts. Each BDNF transcript is composed by one out of 11 alternatively spliced exons containing the 5'untranslated region (UTR), and one common exon encompassing the coding sequence (CDS) and the 3'UTR with two variants (short and long). In neurons, BDNF mRNA variants have a distinct subcellular distribution,...
