... mechanistic insight into how neurons balance synaptic vesicle exocytosis and endocytosis by identifying a cGMP-dependent protein kinase as a key regulator. Exocytosis Endocytosis Synaptic transmission Presynaptic Neurotransmitter release Neurotransmission is essential for proper nervous...

... of both transmitter classes, establishing a mechanism for scaling co-transmission. Synaptic transmission Secretory granules Tyrosine phosphatase Vesicular transport Neuropeptide vesicles Many synapses feature co-transmission with small-molecule transmitters that rapidly activate...

... functional interaction is favored by sustained synaptic activity. These data identify a regulatory pathway of synaptic transmission that depends on activity-induced remodelling of the postsynaptic scaffold protein complex. GKAP is a core protein of the scaffolding complex that governs glutamate receptor...
