Abstract :
Rapid neurotransmission is like lightning: a spark of calcium in the nerve terminal, a spark of transmitter in the cleft, and the signal is over. But "time is gained at the expense of sensitivity" (Katz, 1988); transmission relies on low-affinity, high-speed reactions. These fast processes are modulated by regulating reactions that do not need to be so rapid. |
