| Abstract | Differentiated olfactory sensory neurons express specific presynaptic proteins, including enzymes involved in neurotransmitter transport and proteins involved in the trafficking and release of synaptic vesicles. Studying the regulation of these presynaptic proteins will help to elucidate the presynaptic differentiation process that ultimately leads to synapse formation. It has been postulated that the formation of a synapse between the axons of the sensory neurons and the dendrites of second order neurons in the olfactory bulb is a critical step in the processes of sensory neuron maturation. One approach to study the relationship between synaptogenesis and sensory neuron maturation is to examine the expression patterns of synaptic molecules through the olfactory neuron lineage. To this end we designed specific in situ hybridization probes to target messengers for proteins involved in presynaptic vesicle release. Our findings show that, as they mature, mouse olfactory neurons sequentially express specific presynaptic genes. Furthermore, the different patterns of expression of these presynaptic genes suggest the existence of discrete steps in presynaptic development: genes encoding proteins involved in scaffolding show an early onset of expression, whereas expression of genes encoding proteins involved in the regulation of vesicle release starts later. In particular, the signature molecule for glutamatergic neurons vesicle glutamate transporter 2 shows the latest onset of expression. In addition, contact with the targets in the olfactory bulb is not controlling presynaptic protein gene expression, suggesting that olfactory sensory neurons follow an intrinsic program of development. |

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.
