Inhibitors of Myosin Light Chain Kinase Block Synaptic Vesicle
Pool Mobilization during Action Potential Firing
Timothy A.
Ryan
Department of Biochemistry, The Weill Medical College of Cornell
University, New York, New York 10021
During repetitive action potential firing the maintenance of
synaptic transmission relies on a continued supply of synaptic vesicles
for fusion with the presynaptic plasma membrane. The mechanism of
transport by which vesicles are delivered to the site of fusion from a
reserve pool is unknown, as are the biochemical pathways linking
intracellular Ca2+ elevation with vesicle
mobilization. Here, using the fluorescent tracer FM1-43 in hippocampal
synaptic terminals, I show that inhibitors of myosin light chain kinase
can block mobilization of the reserve pool and not the immediately
releasable pool.
Key words:
exocytosis; vesicle recycling; synaptic vesicles; myosin
light chain kinase; hippocampus; presynaptic terminal; FM1-43
