Autism spectrum disorder susceptibility gene TAOK2 affects basal dendrite formation in the neocortex

How neurons develop their morphology is an important question in neurobiology. Here we describe a new pathway that specifically affects the formation of basal dendrites and axonal projections in cortical pyramidal neurons. We report that thousand-and-one-amino acid 2 kinase (TAOK2), also known as TA...
