| Abstract | In screening amplified poly(A) mRNA from hippocampal dendrites and growth cones in culture to determine candidates for local translation, we found that select transcription factor mRNAs were present. We hypothesized that synthesis of transcription factor proteins within dendrites would provide a direct signaling pathway between the distal dendrite and the nucleus resulting in modulation of gene expression important for neuronal differentiation. To evaluate this possibility, radiolabeled amplified antisense RNA was used to probe slot blots of transcription factor cDNAs as well as arrayed blots of zinc finger transcription factors. The mRNAs encoding the cAMP response element binding protein (CREB), zif 268, and one putative transcription factor were detected. We expanded upon these results showing that CREB protein is present in dendrites, that translation of CREB mRNA in isolated dendrites is feasible and that CREB protein found in dendrites can interact with the cis-acting cyclic AMP reponse element DNA sequence by using an in situ Southwestern assay. Further, CREB protein in dendrites is not transported to this site from the cell body because fluorescently tagged CREB microperfused into the soma did not diffuse into the dendrites. In addition, CREB protein microperfused into dendrites was rapidly transported to the nucleus, its likely site of bioactivity. Lastly, by using the isolated dendrite system we show that phosphorylation of Ser-133 on CREB protein can occur in isolated dendrites independent of the nucleus. These data provide a regulatory pathway in which transcription factors synthesized and posttranslationally modified in dendrites directly alter gene expression bypassing the integration of signal transduction pathways that converge on the nucleus. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
