A comparison of control sensory neurons and sensory neurons in which Dynlrb1 has been depleted

Caption

A comparison of control sensory neurons and sensory neurons in which Dynlrb1 has been depleted. Neurons are in green. FMRP granules (FMRP puncta) are visualized as white dots. Upon Dynlrb1 depletion, FMRP accumulates in neurons in more numerous and bigger granules, posing a threat to neuron survival.
