Overview

From WUSTL Neuromuscular

Disorders General substrates Types Anterograde Retrograde Synaptic regions General substrates Axons & Dendrites Microtubules Formed from association of dimers of α-tubulin and β-tubulin into protofilaments Protofilaments: Associate laterally to form a tubule Growth of polymer: Addition of tubulin subunits to plus end of filament Shortening of polymer: Subunit loss Dampening of microtubule dynamics in neurons: Microtubule-associated proteins (e.g., tau) Polarity of plus (Fast growing) end Axon & Distal dendrites: Distal Proximal dendrites: Mixed Microtubule orientation in proximal axon Determin
