Recent findings reveal how RIBEYE's assemblies contribute to synaptic ribbon formation in sensory neurons, suggesting novel mechanisms for synaptic function.
In a recent study published in Vita, Liu et al. reveal that RIBEYE forms supramolecular assemblies involving liquid–liquid phase separation, which may explain its ability to form synaptic ribbons in sensory neuron synapses.
