Membrane skeletons, in particular the spectrin-based skeleton, are thought to participate in the organization of specialized membrane domains by restricting integral proteins to specific membrane sites. In the neuromuscular junction, discrete isoforms of spectrin and ankyrin, the peripheral protein
## Abstract Changes in the effective membrane resistance of the abductor muscle of the dactylopodite of the crayfish were used to indicate changes in the GABA concentration in the synaptic cleft. Following bath application of GABA (10^โ5^ to 5 ร 10^โ5^__M__), the muscle membrane resistance decrease
Voltage-gated sodium channels (NaChs) are highly concentrated in the postsynaptic region of the neuromuscular junction, especially in the depths of postsynaptic folds and in the perijunctional region. The formation of the high NaCh density occurs during synapse maturation, approximately 2 weeks afte
