General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function Golgi fragmentation in cultured dorsal root ganglion neurons results in caspase dependent axon degeneration and neuronal cell death. NMNAT2 depletion in these neurons causes Golgi fragmentation and caspase dependent axon degeneration. NMNAT2 depletion does not cause ATP loss in the axons. Cytosolic Nmnat1 overexpression inhibits the axon degeneration induced by Golgi fragmentation or NMNAT2 depletion Mus musculus
