Single-nuclei sequencing of skeletal muscle reveals subsynaptic-specific transcripts involved in neuromuscular junction maintenance

Abstract The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is the synapse formed between motor neurons and skeletal muscle fibers. Its stability relies on the continued expression of genes in a subset of myonuclei, called NMJ myonuclei. Here, we use single-nuclei RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) to identify numerous NMJ-s...
