Figure 2. Tools to label the active synapses and trace the neural circuits

Caption

Active synapses are labeled with different fluorescent proteins using the dual-eGRASP technique, which targets neural circuits connecting various regions of the mouse brain involved in specific memories. The LCD-eGRASP technique further advances this approach by allowing the study of active synapses within localized brain regions.
