Axon Initial Segment Cytoskeleton: Architecture, Development, and Role in Neuron Polarity
The axon initial segment (AIS) is a specialized structure in neurons that resides in between axonal and somatodendritic domains. The localization of the AIS in neurons is ideal for its two major functions: it serves as the site of action potential firing and helps to maintain neuron polarity. It has...
