Spatially restricting gene expression by local translation at synapses

Abstract

mRNA localization and regulated translation provide a means of spatially restricting gene expression within each of the thousands of subcellular compartments made by a neuron, thereby vastly increasing the computational capacity of the brain. Recent studies reveal that local translation is regulated by stimuli that trigger neurite outgrowth/collapse, axon guidance, synapse formation, pruning, activity-dependent synaptic plasticity, and injury induced axonal regeneration. Impairments in the local regulation of translation result in aberrant signaling, physiology, and morphology of neurons, and are linked to neurological disorders. This review highlights current advances in understanding how mRNAs are translationally repressed during transport and how local translation is activated by stimuli. We address the function of local translation in the context of fragile X mental retardation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
