Scope and Contents

Contents

The signaling lipid, phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate (PI(3,5)P₂), likely functions in multiple signaling pathways. Here, we report the characterization of a mouse mutant lacking Vac14, a regulator of PI(3,5)P₂ synthesis. The mutant mice exhibit massive neurodegeneration, particularly in the midbrain and in peripheral sensory neurons. Cell bod...
