Abstract

Making Menorahs Highly branched neuronal processes are typical of numerous neurons. The mechanisms controlling the formation, maintenance and regeneration of neuronal trees are poorly understood. Oren-Suissa et al. (p. 1285 , published online 6 May) observed the development of extensively arborized neurite trees—menorahs—in two highly branched mechanosensory neurons in Caenorhabditis elegans . EFF-1, a fusion protein known to be important for cell fusion, played a key role in arborization.
