Supplementary Figure 1. In the compartmental model, dendritic spike width is correlated with the gain of the firing system, and with the degree of leak placed in the dendrite.
(A) The width of the dendritic spike correlates strongly with the linear portion of the FI curve in the model. Because FI curves in the model did not plateau as abruptly as the cells in our recordings, we fit only the initial linear region, defined as the region giving a linear fit with r > 0.95.
(B) The width of the dendritic spike is strongly correlated with the degree of leak conductance placed in the dendrite. Because the effects of leak are primarily in the late repolarization phase of the spike, dendritic spike width is measured at the base of the spike, defined as the time from spike threshold until the return to that membrane voltage.
