Abstract

An enzymatic reaction-diffusion system in a neuron is supposed for the modeling of synaptic storage of information. This system can encode and store the history of signal transmissions in a graded and cumulative fashion. This graduality appears to result from signal-induced changes in quantities that are held constant with time in the absence of signals.
