Rapid mobilization of Ca2+ from rat insulinoma microsomes by inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate.

abstract：:In developing mammalian muscle, axon branches of several motor neurons co-innervate the same muscle fibre. Competition among them results in the strengthening of one and the withdrawal of the rest. It is not known why one particular axon branch survives or why some competitions resolve sooner than others. Here we show...
