Abstract excerpt
Although numerous electrophysiological and biochemical studies have defined many of the properties of the putative Ca2+ receptor for exocytosis at the synapse, the molecular mechanisms that couple influx of Ca2+ and release of neurotransmitter have remained elusive. Several proteins have emerged recently as putative Ca2+ sensors. Interestingly, one of these proteins, synaptotagmin, shares many properties with the...
