SUMMARY:MBI Weekly Seminar
DESCRIPTION:MBI Weekly Seminar\nDate: 8 July 2022\, Friday\nTime: 10am\nVenue: Zoom \nPhase separation in synapse formation and function\nBy Mingjie Zhang\, Professor\, Southern University of Science and Technology\, China \n\nEmerging evidence indicates that liquid-liquid phase separation\, the formation of a condensed molecular assembly within another diluted aqueous solution\, is a means for cells to organize highly condensed biological assemblies with broad functions and regulatory properties in different subcellular regions. Molecular machineries dictating synaptic transmissions in both presynaptic boutons and postsynaptic densities of neuronal synapses are such biological condensates. In this talk\, I will present our recent work showing how phase separation can build dense synaptic molecular clusters\, highlight unique features of such condensed clusters in the context of synapse formation and plasticity\, and discuss how aberrant phase-separation-mediated synaptic assembly formation may contribute to dysfunctional signaling in psychiatric disorders. \n\nFind Help\nNon MBI staff who are interested in attending should contact Qiao Jing at mbilqj@nus.edu.sg for Zoom details.
