  • Summary of the complexin KD and rescue experiment results. Complexin-1/2 KD results in reduced vesicle priming and clamping and decreased Ca2+ triggering of fast release. The efficacy of various complexin proteins to rescue the three features of the KD phenotype is indicated (↑, rescue; ↓, no rescue; n.d., not determined).
