Scope and Contents

Contents

The protein CPEB, required for learning-related synaptic plasticity in the snail
Aplysia
, has been suggested to convert from a soluble to a prion-like state. Now these conformational forms of
Aplysia
CPEB are directly observed, with the prion form showing enhanced binding to target mRNAs.
The neuronal isoform of cytoplasmic polyaden...
