Elimination of redundant synapses formed early in development and strengthening of necessary connections are crucial for shaping functional neural circuits. Purkinje cells (PCs) in the neonatal cerebellum are innervated by multiple climbing fibers (CFs) with similar strengths. A single CF is strengthened whereas the other CFs are eliminated in each PC during postnatal development. The underlying mechanisms,...
Spatiotemporally restricted gene targeting is needed for analyzing the functions of various molecules in a variety of biological phenomena. We have generated an inducible cerebellar Purkinje cell-specific gene targeting system. This was achieved by establishing a mutant mouse line (D2CPR) from a C57BL/6 mouse ES cell line, which expressed a fusion protein consisting of the Cre recombinase and the...
