A massive thank you to the EMBO team for allowing us to publish this story and making the cover. Fat-tagging (myristoylation) at the synapse is critical for synaptic plasticity:) Congrats to all involved n the @meunierlab.bsky.social

Excited for our latest work! We developed nanobinders for the luminal domain of Synaptotagmin 1 (calcium sensor for synaptic vesicles). Thanks among others to @verstrekenlab.bsky.social @opazo.bsky.social @meunierlab.bsky.social @volkerhaucke-lab.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Nanobinders for Synaptotagmin 1 enable the analysis of synaptic vesicle dynamics in rodent and human models.
Synaptic neurotransmission is a critical hallmark of brain activity and one of the first processes to be affected in neural diseases. Monitoring this process, and in particular synaptic vesicle recycl...

Today's lectures were given by @meunierlab.bsky.social and Victor Anggono on probing synaptic with super resolution microscopy, and the molecular structure of learning and memory. In the afternoon the students will have a go at super resolution, and TIRF microscopy.

Still amazed by the effect of hericene A on neurite outgrowth in vitro, on BDNF and pTrkB levels in vivo and enhanced cognition in two independent memory paradigms. There is something there! Check this out onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... #neuron, #microscopy, #axon, #neurotrophins

LRP4 controls SO MUCH more! And it all seems to do so from the PRESYNAPSE (answering that HUGE open question). LRP4 controls synapse growth, cytoskeletal organization, postsynaptic protein recruitment, AND maturation. Multiple processes for the price of one cell surface protein!
