This paper is concerned with feedback inhibition of neurotransmitter release by the neurotransmitter itself. We put forward the idea that, similar to multistep biochemical processes, feedback inhibition acts on the initial step in the chain of events that lead to release. Using experimental results

A molecular-level theory is constructed for the control of fast neurotransmitter release, based on recent experimental findings that depolarization shifts presynaptic autoreceptors to a low affinity state and that an autoreceptor must be bound to a transmitter before it can become associated with th
The production of immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) protein in pro-B cells provides feedback to terminate further V H gene recombination. This phenomenon is referred to as allelic exclusion. The chromatin structure of the V H genes regulates their recombination potential, hence alterations in chromat
