Neuronal activity-regulated gene transcription: how are distant synaptic signals conveyed to the nucleus?
2012-12-19
Abstract excerpt
Synaptic activity can trigger gene expression programs that are required for the stable change of neuronal properties, a process that is essential for learning and memory. Currently, it is still unclear how the stimulation of dendritic synapses can be coupled to transcription in the nucleus in a timely way given that large distances can separate these two cellular compartments. Although several mechanisms have bee...
