Single neuron activity in human hippocampus and amygdala during recognition of faces and objects.

abstract：:X-ray crystallography has made considerable recent progress in providing static structures of ion channels. Here we describe a complementary method-systematic fluorescence scanning-that reveals the structural dynamics of a channel. Local protein motion was measured from changes in the fluorescent intensity of a fluoro...
