Analysis of rod/cone gap junctions from the reconstruction of mouse photoreceptor terminals
Abstract
This project was inspired by the paper from Behrens et al (2016) who used e2006 to reconstruct bipolar cells. We thank Christian Behrens, Timm Schubert, Philipp Berens and Thomas Euler (University of Tübingen) for generously sharing data on blue cone bipolar cells. We thank Moritz Helmstaedter (MPI, Frankfurt) for hosting the e2006 dataset. We thank Kiril Martemyanov (Scripps research Institute, Jupiter, Florida) for the generous gift of an mGluR6 antbody. We thank David Berson (Brown University), for advice, encouragement and an introduction to connectomics. We thank Jessica Riesterer at the Multiscale Microscopy Core, an OHSU University Shared Resource core facility, for acquiring the FIB-SEM datasets. We thank Alice Chuang (Richard Ruiz Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Science, McGovern Medical School) for statistical analysis.
