Here we show that molecular gradients can also instruct the formation of a discrete neural map. In the fly olfactory system, axons of 50 classes of olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) and dendrites of 50 classes of projection neurons (PNs) form one-to-one connections at discrete units called glomeruli. We provide expression, loss- and gain-of-function data to demonstrate that the levels of transmembrane Semaphorin-1a (Sema-1a), acting cell-autonomously as a receptor or part of a receptor complex, direct the dendritic targeting of PNs along the dorsolateral to ventromedial axis of the antennal lobe. Sema-1a also regulates PN axon targeting in higher olfactory centers. Thus, graded expression of Sema-1a contributes to connection specificity from ORNs to PNs and then to higher brain centers, ensuring proper representation of olfactory information in the brain.","lang":"eng"}],"year":"2007","title":"Graded expression of semaphorin-1a cell-autonomously directs dendritic targeting of olfactory projection neurons","date_published":"2007-01-26T00:00:00Z","article_type":"original","month":"01","volume":128,"intvolume":"       128","article_processing_charge":"No","extern":"1","citation":{"ama":"Komiyama T, Sweeney LB, Schuldiner O, Garcia KC, Luo L.
