Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Accumulating evidence suggests that serine /threonine kinase AMPK subfamily regulate neuronal polarization such as axon/dendrite formation. Here, we show that 1) MARK and AMPK1 are biochemically localized and expressed in the nerve terminals, in particular synaptic vesicles and active zone fractions; 2) phosphorylation of CAST regulates release of neurotransmitter from the active zone; and 3) SAD family may be involved in cell death. These results suggest that AMPK family member regulate not only neuronal polarization but also neurotransmitter release from the nerve terminals.
