New paper! We have confirmed Francis Crick's 1984 hypothesis on memory preservation. π§ Using super-resolution microscopy, we visualised protein lifetime in super-complexes isolated from the brain, looking at structure and turnover! @EdinburghChem
elifesciences.org
PSD95 supercomplexes maintain long-term stability through gradual subunit replacement, with the slowest turnover in cortical synapses associated with memory storage.
