Fig. 9. Regulation of neurite outgrowth by localized co-translational arginylation of β-actin.

Fig. 9

Zipcode-mediated transport of β-actin and Ate1 mRNA to the growth cones leads to their co-localized translation and subsequent co-translational arginylation of β-actin. We propose this to be the mechanism that facilitates the neurite outgrowth by maintain polarized actin elongation in the growth cones.
