PTPN11/Corkscrew Activates Local Presynaptic Mapk Signaling to Regulate Synapsin, Synaptic Vesicle Pools, and Neurotransmission Strength, with a Dual Requirement in Neurons and Glia.

Abstract excerpt

Cytoplasmic protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor type 11 (PTPN11) and Drosophila homolog Corkscrew (Csw) regulate the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway via a conserved autoinhibitory mechanism. Disease-causing loss-of-function (LoF) and gain-of-function (GoF) mutations both disrupt this autoinhibition to potentiate MAPK signaling. At the Drosophila neuromuscular junction glutamatergic synapse,...
