Abstract:Many neurodegenerative diseases induce high levels of sustained cellular stress and alter a number of cellular processes. Genetically-encoded fluorescent biosensors are effective tools to examine neuronal activity and signaling in living cells. To examine how different mutations associated with neurodegenerative disease affect cell stress and signaling we created live-cell assays for ER-mediated cell stress and second messenger signaling. Analysis of the rhodopsin P23H mutation, the most common mutation in aut… Show more
