KIF2C regulates synaptic plasticity and cognition in mice through dynamic microtubule depolymerization
Dynamic microtubules play a critical role in cell structure and function. In nervous system, microtubules are the major route for cargo protein trafficking and they specially extend into and out of synapses to regulate synaptic development and plasticity. However, the detailed depolymerization mecha...
