Secondary structure transitions and dual PIP2 binding define cardiac KCNQ1-KCNE1 channel gating

Ling Zhong, Xiaoqing Lin, Xinyu Cheng, Shuangyan Wan, Yaoguang Hua, Weiwei Nan, Bin Hu, Xiangjun Peng, Zihan Zhou, Qiansen Zhang, Huaiyu Yang, Frank Noé, Zhenzhen Yan, Dexiang Jiang, Hangyu Zhang, , Panpan Hou

This study determines the structure of KCNQ1+KCNE1 in closed and open states, revealing structural transitions and dual PIP2 binding that regulate channel gating and IKs function.

Fully-primed slowly-recovering vesicles mediate presynaptic LTP at neocortical neurons

Iron Weichard, Holger Taschenberger, Felix Gsell, Grit Bornschein, Andreas Ritzau‐Jost, Hartmut Schmidt, Robert J. Kittel, Jens Eilers, Erwin Neher, Stefan Hallermann, Jana Nerlich

This study shows that LTP at layer 5 pyramidal neurons increases synaptic strength by increasing the number of fully-primed, slowly-recovering vesicles.

A sequential two-step priming scheme reproduces diversity in synaptic strength and short-term plasticity

Kun‐Han Lin, Holger Taschenberger, Erwin Neher

The paper demonstrates a two-step priming scheme that reproduces synaptic strength and short-term plasticity diversity using non-negative tensor factorization and state modeling.
