Accessories assist AMPA receptors to close pockets
C o m m e n t a r y Stargazin (STZ), the prototypical member of the trans membrane AMPA receptor regulatory protein (TARP) family, can boost AMPA receptor activity to enhance synaptic currents as much as one third. The effects of STZ on microscopic and macroscopic AMPA receptor currents are consistent with a mechanism in which STZ facilitates opening of the AMPA receptor channel. How ever, th...
متن کاملMyosin Learns to Recruit AMPA Receptors
The induction of long-term potentiation (LTP) leads to an increase in the density of AMPA receptors at dendritic spines. New work by Wang et al. (2008) reveals the mechanism by which myosin Vb regulates the intracellular trafficking of AMPA receptors from recycling endosomes to synaptic sites during LTP.
متن کاملIntermediate zone cells express calcium-permeable AMPA receptors and establish close contact with growing axons.
Recent studies have shown that cells in the intermediate zone (IZ) of the embryonic neocortex originate in the basal telencephalon and migrate tangentially in the cortical wall (;; ). We had previously observed growing cortical axons closely apposed to calbindin-positive, tangentially oriented cells in the IZ (), and it has been shown that neurites in the IZ express a glutamate transporter (). ...
متن کاملGating modes in AMPA receptors.
AMPA receptors are ligand-gated ion channels that show multiple conductance levels, indicating that gating of individual AMPA subunits is to some extent independent of the other subunits. To study AMPAR subunit interactions during activation gating, we recorded from single channels in the absence of channel block and desensitization and at negative and positive membrane potentials. In saturatin...
