Folding for the Synapse

Synapses regulate cell-to-cell communication in the nervous system as relatively discrete compartments that are dysfunctional during proteinopathies. Due to their partial autarky, synapses have evolved intrinsic protein folding and homeostatic capabilities that are discussed in the book. The book se...
