- Title
Analysis of calcium channels in single spines using optical fluctuation analysis.
- Authors
Sabatini, Bernardo L.; Svoboda, Karel
- Abstract
Reports research on the number and properties of voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) in the specialized postsynaptic structures known as dendritic spines. Method of determining that each spine contains 1-20 VSCC and that this number increases with spine volume; Finding that the spatial distribution of VSCC subtypes and their modulatory potential is regulated with submicrometer precision.
