A Kobe University research team identified a protein, called “FAM81A,” that has been showing up in the majority of studies on the “postsynaptic density” but has remained uncharacterized so far. In a ...

Figure 1: CPG15 expression in tectal neurons increases growth of presynaptic retinotectal axons. Figure 2: Growth rates of complex axons are selectively affected by CPG15. In summary, postsynaptic ...

A research group led by Specially appointed professor, Dr. Tatsuo Suzuki of Shinshu University School of Medicine developed a new purification protocol for Postsynaptic density (PSD) lattice, a core ...

Postsynaptic Simulator transforms principles about neuronal activation into a fun game. The app is divided into eight different levels, each of which describes a different objective to the user. Each ...

A research team revealed in an animal study a previously unknown role of a presynaptic adhesion molecule to tell the new change by regulating postsynaptic NMDA-type receptor responses at excitatory ...

A protein that appears in postsynaptic protein agglomerations has been found to be crucial to their formation. The Kobe University discovery identifies a new key player for synaptic function and sheds ...
