    • CDK5 downregulation enhances synaptic plasticity 
      Posada Duque, Rafael; Ramírez, Omar A.; Härtel, Steffen; Inestrosa, Nibaldo C.; Bodaleo, Felipe; González Billault, Christian; Kirkwood, Alfredo; Cardona Gómez, Gloria (Birkhauser Verlag AG, 2017)
      © 2016, Springer International Publishing. CDK5 is a serine/threonine kinase that is involved in the normal function of the adult brain and plays a role in neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity. However, its over-regulation ...
    • Location matters: the endoplasmic reticulum and protein trafficking in dendrites 
      Ramírez, Omar A.; Härtel, Steffen; Couve Correa, Andrés (SOC BIOLGIA CHILE, 2011)
      Neurons are highly polarized, but the trafficking mechanisms that operate in these cells and the topological organization of their secretory organelles a re still poorly understood. Particularly incipient is our knowledge ...
    • Marlin-1 and conventional kinesin link GABA(B) receptors to the cytoskeleton and regulate receptor transport 
      Vidal, René L.; Ramírez, Omar A.; Sandoval, Lisette; Koenig Robert, Roger; Haertel, Steffen; Couve Correa, Andrés (2007)
      The cytoskeleton and cytoskeletal motors play a fundamental role in neurotransmitter receptor trafficking, but proteins that link GABA(B) receptors (GABA(B)Rs) to the cytoskeleton have not been described. We recently ...
    • The endoplasmic reticulum and protein trafficking in dendrites and axons 
      Ramírez, Omar A.; Couve Correa, Andrés (Elsevier, 2011-04)
      Neurons are highly polarized cells whose dendrites and axons extend long distances from the cell body to form synapses that mediate neuronal communication. The trafficking of membrane lipids and proteins throughout the ...
