Annotation description: | Figure 7: confocal imaging of dendritic spines in cultured hippocampal neurons (11DIV) expressing controls, wildtype CPEB3 and various CPEB3 mutants showed that CPEB3 overexpression strongly decreased spine density but not in CPEB3-Δubiquitination. "However, expressing CPEB3-UbKO resulted in pronounced increase of number of spines and filopodia, whereas CPEB3 fused to either DsRed or SUMO resulted in a phenotype similar to wild type CPEB3. Taken together, our data suggest that the ability of Neurl1 to ubiquitinate CPEB3 is a limiting factor and facilitates hippocampal synaptic plasticity and hippocampal-dependent memory by modulating CPEB3 translational activity through ubiquitination with consequent induction of an increase of GluA1 and GluA2 protein levels and the formation of new spines." |
