Synaptic vesicle undocking induces low frequency depression

Melissa Silva, Federico Francisco Trigo, Isabel Llano, Alain Marty

The paper investigates low frequency depression (LFD) in synapses and finds it results from synaptic vesicle undocking rather than depletion of the readily releasable pool.

A maximum of two readily releasable vesicles per docking site at a cerebellar single active zone synapse

Melissa Silva, Van Tran, Alain Marty

The paper estimates the maximum RRP size per docking site at a cerebellar synapse as two vesicles, supporting a sequential two-step docking model.

Prioritized docking of synaptic vesicles provided by a rapid recycling pathway

Van Tran, Melissa Silva, Alain Marty

The paper investigates the relationship between synaptic vesicle endocytosis and docking, showing that a rapid recycling pathway preferentially docks vesicles from its origin.
