  • Huang and Trussell show that resting potential of the calyx of Held synapse is controlled by KCNQ5 potassium channels. Unlike most KCNQ channels, which activate only on depolarization, these presynaptic channels activate negative to the resting potential. These channels set the resting conductance and control release probability of the synapse.

  • Cryo-electron microscopy analyses of calcium-permeable AMPA receptors from rat brain show that they are composed primarily of GluA1 and GluA4 subunits, and biochemical studies show that noelin promotes inter-receptor interactions without modulating receptor function.

  • Electrical coupling in the brain usually occurs between inhibitory neurons that are anatomically and functionally similar. Here the authors show that the excitability of inhibitory interneurons in the dorsal cochlear nucleus is controlled by electrical synapses with excitatory projection cells.

  • Fast-acting neurotransmitters are usually cleared quickly from synaptic regions, making the time course of synaptic responses independent of active sites. The authors describe an exception to this rule at glycinergic synapses on granule cells of the dorsal cochlear nucleus.

  • The authors report that rat brain glutamatergic synaptic vesicles express monovalent cation/H+ exchangers that convert the Δψ of the proton electrochemical gradient into Δψ. They find that this K+/H+ exchange stimulates the accumulation of glutamate into vesicles, regulating glutamate release and thus synaptic transmission.

  • In cochlear hair cells, each transmitter release site communicates information about sound frequency and intensity. Now the first direct electrophysiological recordings from the structures postsynaptic to these sites show that they function very differently from brain synapses.
