DESCRIPTION:Host: Matt Bence
\n
\nWe have studied the origins and evolution
  of synapses using comparative proteomics and genomics. Striking changes in
  signalling complexity were observed at the yeast:metazoan and invertebrate
 :vertebrate boundaries\, with expansion of key synapse components. We find 
 that vertebrate-specific components preferentially contributed to differenc
 es between brain regions in mammals. We propose that evolution of synapse c
 omplexity around a core proto-synapse has contributed to invertebrate–ver
 tebrate differences and to brain specialisation. The organisation of the ph
 osphoproteome and the complexity of switching and regulation will be presen
 ted.
