Fluorescent and photo-oxidizing TimeSTAMP tags track protein fates in light and electron microscopy. [PDF]
Protein synthesis is highly regulated throughout nervous system development, plasticity and regeneration. However, tracking the distributions of specific new protein species has not been possible in living neurons or at the ultrastructural level ...

Reduction in Phencyclidine Induced Sensorimotor Gating Deficits in the Rat Following Increased System Xc − Activity in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex [PDF]
Rationale: Aspects of schizophrenia, including deficits in sensorimotor gating, have been linked to glutamate dysfunction and/or oxidative stress in the prefrontal cortex. System xc −, a cystine–glutamate antiporter, is a poorly understood mechanism that

Metabotropic glutamate receptors: Phosphorylation and receptor signaling
AbstractMetabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) play important roles in neurotransmission, neuronal development, synaptic plasticity, and neurological disorders. Recent studies have revealed a sophisticated interplay between mGluRs and protein kinases: activation of mGluRs regulates the activity of a number of kinases, and direct phosphorylation of ...

A Spike of Electrodiffusion Reaches Metabotropic Receptors [PDF]
Flow of current in the synaptic cleft can influence diffusion of charged transmitters, such as glutamate. In this issue of Neuron, Sylantyev et al. (2013) demonstrate how this can modulate synaptic NMDA receptor-mediated responses via a surprising mechanism-perisynaptic metabotropic glutamate receptors.

Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor Activation in Cerebelar Purkinje Cells as Substrate for Adaptive Timing of the Classicaly Conditioned Eye Blink Response [PDF]
To understand how the cerebellum adaptively times the classically conditioned nictitating membrane response (NMR), a model of the metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) second messenger system in cerebellar Purkinje cells is constructed.

Metabotropic Receptors for Glutamate and GABA [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest superfamily of transmembrane proteins and due to their ubiquitous expression and vast array of functions they present attractive targets for the treatment of a wide number of diseases and disorders.

DNA‐Based Genetic and Non‐Genetic Tools for Receptor Engineering. This review highlights recent advances in DNA‐based strategies for receptor engineering, including genetic approaches like domain fusion and site‐directed mutagenesis, as well as non‐genetic methods using functional nucleic acids, DNA nanostructures, and dynamic DNA reactions.

A population of immature cerebellar parallel fibre synapses are insensitive to adenosine but are inhibited by hypoxia [PDF]
The purine adenosine plays an important role in a number of physiological and pathological processes and is neuroprotective during hypoxia and ischemia.
