Scientiae forum / models and speculations pathways for axonal targeting of membrane proteinsBettina Winckler
Department of Neuroscience, University of Virginia Medical School, Lane Road Extension MR4, Charlottesville, VA 22908 1392, USA
Biol Cell 96:669-74. 2004..A protein might in fact be sorted multiple times at different places to achieve axonal localization...
Endocytosis and endosomes at the crossroads of regulating trafficking of axon outgrowth-modifying receptorsBettina Winckler
Department of Neuroscience, University of Virginia Medical School, MR4 6115, 409 Lane Road Ext, Charlottesville, VA 22936, USA
Traffic 12:1099-108. 2011..We will first summarize the pathways underlying the axonal transport of these proteins and then discuss the potential roles of EHD4/Pincher in mediating their endocytosis...
BDNF instructs the kinase LKB1 to grow an axonBettina Winckler
Department of Neuroscience, University of Virginia Medical School, Charlottesville, VA 22908, USA
Cell 129:459-60. 2007..Two groups (Barnes et al., 2007; Shelly et al., 2007) now report that axon specification in vivo is mediated by extracellular signals acting through the serine/threonine kinase LKB1...
Cordon-bleu: a new taste in actin nucleationBettina Winckler
Department of Neuroscience, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA 22093, USA
Cell 131:236-8. 2007..In this issue, Ahuja et al. (2007) identify and characterize a new actin nucleator called cordon-bleu (Cobl) that may drive morphogenesis of the central nervous system during development...
Alterations of EHD1/EHD4 protein levels interfere with L1/NgCAM endocytosis in neurons and disrupt axonal targetingChan Choo C Yap
Department of Neuroscience, University of Virginia Medical School, Charlottesville, Virginia 22936, USA
J Neurosci 30:6646-57. 2010..Our data suggest that EHD1 plays roles in both endosomal recycling and a specialized endocytosis pathway in neurons used by NgCAM. We propose that EHD1 and EHD4 act as hetero-oligomeric complexes in this pathway...
Inhibition of sphingolipid synthesis affects kinetics but not fidelity of L1/NgCAM transport along direct but not transcytotic axonal pathwaysMichael C Chang
Department of Neuroscience, University of Virginia, 409 Lane Road, MR4-6112, Charlottesville, VA 22908, USA
Mol Cell Neurosci 31:525-38. 2006..Therefore, the formation and/or transport of a subset of axonally-targeted vesicles are coupled to sphingolipid synthesis. Our results yield a mechanism for the axon outgrowth defect observed in FB1...
Compartmentalizing the neuronal plasma membrane from axon initial segments to synapsesZofia M Lasiecka
Department of Neuroscience, University of Virginia Medical School, Charlottesville, VA 22908, USA
Int Rev Cell Mol Biol 272:303-89. 2009....
Trafficking guidance receptorsBettina Winckler
University of Virginia, Department of Neuroscience, Charlottesville, Virgina 22908, USA
Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol 2:a001826. 2010..It is likely that the localization of all guidance receptors is regulated by a combination of sorting, retrieval, recycling and retention, similar to the ones we discuss here for L1...
The somatodendritic endosomal regulator NEEP21 facilitates axonal targeting of L1/NgCAMChan Choo Yap
Department of Neuroscience, University of Virginia Medical School, Charlottesville, VA 22908, USA
J Cell Biol 180:827-42. 2008..We propose that small endosomal carriers derived from somatodendritic recycling endosomes can serve to redistribute a distinct set of membrane proteins from dendrites to axons...
Ankyrin-dependent and -independent mechanisms orchestrate axonal compartmentalization of L1 family members neurofascin and L1/neuron-glia cell adhesion moleculeTatiana Boiko
Department of Neuroscience, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia 22908, USA
J Neurosci 27:590-603. 2007..Our results suggest that NF and L1/NgCAM accumulate in the axon by an ankyrin-independent pathway, but retention at the IS requires ankyrin binding...
Myelin under construction -- teamwork requiredTatiana Boiko
Department of Neuroscience, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA 22908, USA
J Cell Biol 172:799-801. 2006..show that neuronal signaling regulates cell surface expression of the myelin proteolipid protein in cultured oligodendrocytes in unexpected ways that may also contribute to myelination in situ...
Pathway selection to the axon depends on multiple targeting signals in NgCAMChan Choo Yap
University of Virginia Medical School, Department of Neuroscience, Charlottesville, VA 22908, USA
J Cell Sci 121:1514-25. 2008..Additionally, we show that the axonal cytoplasmic signal promotes apical targeting in MDCK cells. Transcytosis of NgCAM to the axon thus requires the sequential regulated execution of multiple targeting signals...
