The 3'-untranslated region of CaMKIIalpha is a cis-acting signal for the localization and translation of mRNA in dendrites

Mayford et al produced two lines of transgenic mice in which the Ca2plus-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKIIalpha) promoter is used to drive the expression of a lacZ transcript in order to characterize the cis-acting elements involved in the localization of dendritic mRNA.
