Distinct neuronal types connect in complex ways to generate functional neural circuits. The molecular diversity required to specify this connectivity could be supplied by multigene families of synaptic recognition molecules, but most studies to date have assessed just one or a few members at a time. Here, we analyze roles of cadherins (Cdhs) in formation of retinal circuits comprising eight neuronal types that inform the brain about motion in four directions. We show that at least 15 classical Cdhs are expressed by neurons in these circuits and at least 6 (Cdh6-10 and 18) act individually or in combinations to promote specific connectivity among the cells. They act in part by directing the processes of output neurons and excitatory interneurons to a cellular scaffold formed by inhibitory interneurons. Because Cdhs are expressed combinatorially by many central neurons, similar interactions could be involved in patterning circuits throughout the brain.

View all literature mentionsSoftware tool for fast and high throughput alignment of shotgun cDNA sequencing reads generated by transcriptomics technologies. Fast splice junction mapper for RNA-Seq reads. Aligns RNA-Seq reads to mammalian-sized genomes using ultra high-throughput short read aligner Bowtie, and then analyzes mapping results to identify splice junctions between exons.TopHat2 is accurate alignment of transcriptomes in presence of insertions, deletions and gene fusions.

View all literature mentionsSoftware tool for transcriptome assembly and differential expression analysis for RNA-Seq. Includes script called cuffmerge that can be used to merge together several Cufflinks assemblies. It also handles running Cuffcompare as well as automatically filtering a number of transfrags that are likely to be artifacts. If the researcher has a reference GTF file, the researcher can provide it to the script to more effectively merge novel isoforms and maximize overall assembly quality.
