## Abstract Synaptic vesicle (SV) size is one parameter that controls the amount of neurotransmitter released from individual SVs and, therefore, is fundamental to our understanding of synaptic function. The recently discovered variability of mean SV size among excitatory hippocampal synapsesβif ac
We studied the distribution and appearance of the phosphorylated form of the 200 kD neurofilament protein in the rat soleus muscle during the period of postnatal synapse elimination. Unlike many muscles, the appearance of singly innervated muscle cells in soleus occurs well after myogenesis has been
Fragile X mental retardation syndrome results from the absence of or a defect in the protein (FMRP) encoded by the FMR1 gene. FMRP is found in dendrites and synapses as well as in the neuronal cell soma and nucleus, and although it is known to bind to RNA, the function of the protein in neurons is n
