SARM1 is a key regulator of axonal degeneration. However, SARM1 mechanism of action is not clear. In this issue of Neuron, Essuman et al. (2017) reveal an intrinsic NADase activity in the SARM1-TIR domain that is required for axonal degeneration.
SARM1 是轴突退化的关键调节因子。然而,SARM1 的作用机制尚不清楚。在本期《神经元》杂志上,Essuman 等人(2017)揭示了 SARM1-TIR 结构域中的固有 NADase 活性,该活性对于轴突退化是必需的。
