Hormones and Synapse Carlos G.Martínez-MorenoCarlosArámburo, inVitamins and Hormones, 2020 2.1Growth hormone: Structure and signaling 2.1.1Growth hormone structure Growth hormone(GH) is a 22kDa protein synthetized as a 224 amino acid (aa)prehormonewhich, depending on the species, produces a matu...
2, yet the molecular mechanisms for the biogenesis of synaptic vesicles are mainly unknown. Here we discovered a well-defined interface between the synaptic vesicle V-ATPase and synaptophysin by in situ cryo-electron tomography and single-particle cryo-electron microscopy of functional synaptic vesicles...

Interestingly, changes in the activity of tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle enzymes and the electron transport chain (ETC), have recently been reported to affect energy production and thus synapse loss in AD models62. Given that succinate dehydrogenase represents both a critical enzyme in the TCA ...
Neuroserpin is a serine protease inhibitor identified in a search for proteins implicated in neuronal axon growth and synapse formation. Since its discovery over 30 years ago, it has been the focus of active research. Many efforts have concentrated in elucidating its neuroprotective role in brain ...
proteins regulates morphological changes of the dendritic spine in an activity dependent manner. As discussed earlier, the morphology of the dendritic spine directly correlates with its level of AMPAreceptor expression, implying that these actin-binding proteins may regulate the strength of a synapse. ...

7. Here we present cryo-electron microscopy structures of human brain and cardiac CaV1.2 bound with CaVβ3to a chaperone—the endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein complex (EMC)8,9—and of the assembled CaV1.2–CaVβ3–CaVα2δ-1 channel. These structures provide a view of an EMC–client ...
Amyloid beta peptide (Aβ) is produced through the proteolytic processing of a transmembrane protein, amyloid precursor protein (APP), by β- and γ-secretases. Aβ accumulation in the brain is proposed to be an early toxic event in the pathogenesis of A
