Imaging Exocytosis of Single Synaptic Vesicles at a Fast CNS Presynaptic Terminal.

abstract：:The subunit stoichiometry of the mammalian K+ channel KV1.1 (RCK1) was examined by linking together the coding sequences of 2-5 K+ channel subunits in a single open reading frame and tagging the expression of individual subunits with a mutation (Y379K or Y379R) that altered the sensitivity of the channel to block by e...
