Non-Enzymatic Activity Of The Alpha Tubulin Acetyltransferase Alpha-Tat1 Differentially Alters The Stability Of Dynamic And Stable Microtubules
Neuronal axons terminate as synaptic boutons that form stable yet plastic connections with their targets. Synaptic bouton development relies on an underlying network of both long-lived and dynamic microtubules that provide structural stability for the boutons while also allowing for their growth …

Analyzing Ultrastructural characteristics of Post-synaptic targets of pre-identified Presynaptic Boutons in layer 3 and layer 4 of the Ferret Primary Visual cortex
… size and ultrastructural characteristics of post-synaptic elements apposed to previously characterized pre-synaptic elements in layers 3 and 4 of the primary visual cortex (PVC). We are aiming to quantify a range of values for synaptic element morphologies as well as to correlate pre- and …

Investigating neuronal mitochondrial DNA loss in Drosophila melanogaster
… loss does not cause neuronal loss or changes in synaptic bouton number during development. However, we observe a significant decrease in the number of mitochondria and the number of pre-synaptic active zones (the sites of neurotransmitter release) in motor neurons with reduced mtDNA content. …
