Physiological functions for brain NF-κB

TL;DR: This review highlights advances in the understanding of the mechanisms of Ca 2+ -responsive activation and synaptic signaling to the nucleus by NF-κB transcription factors within the CNS, and the relevance of this transcription factor family for learning and memory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radiation-induced Assembly of Rad51 and Rad52 Recombination Complex Requires ATM and c-Abl

TL;DR: This work demonstrates that there is an I-R-induced Rad51 tyrosine phosphorylation, and this induction is dependent on both ATM and c-Abl, and suggests signaling mediated through ATM is required for the correct post-translational modification of Rad51, which is critical for the assembly of Rad 51 repair protein complex following I- R.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuronal pp60c-src contains a six-amino acid insertion relative to its non-neuronal counterpart

TL;DR: Brain c-src RNA contains an 18-nucleotide insertion at the position of the extra six amino acids within the NH2-terminal 16 kilodaltons of the molecule, which confirms that brain c- src RNA is encoded by a brain-specific messenger RNA.
Journal ArticleDOI

The recombination activating gene-1 (RAG-1) transcript is present in the murine central nervous system

TL;DR: The results suggest that RAG-1 functions in neurons, where its role might be to recombine elements of the neuronal genome site-specifically, or to prevent detrimental alterations of the genome in these long-lived cells.
