Receptor clustering: nothing succeeds like success.

Current biology : CB - 8 Jun 2004

Griffith Leslie C

Abstract excerpt

By experimentally limiting the amount of receptor molecules available in a postsynaptic neuron in Drosophila, it has been shown that receptors can preferentially cluster opposite active zones with a high release probability. This asymmetry in receptor distribution can alter the apparent probability and calcium-dependence of neurotransmitter release.
