How protons tune AMPA receptor-mediated information processing at neuronal synapses
Ingo Greger’s group, in the LMB’s Neurobiology Division, find that low pH causes protonation of histidine 208 embedded within GluA2 NTDs – a mechanism which has potential to tune strength of synaptic transmission and plasticity, key to learning and memory.
