Neurons are uniquely complex cells characterized by the expression of RNA sequences that are found in no other cell type: neuron-specific mRNA splice isoforms, circular RNAs, microRNAs, and ultra-long 3’UTRs. Although relatively little is known about how these neuronal RNA signatures control neuronal development and function, the importance of RNA-directed regulation in the brain is exemplified by its implication in neurological diseases. Our goal is to gain mechanistic and functional insight of the neuron-specific RNA landscape that drives neural function in health and disease.
