Membrane transportSignaling in nerve cellsCa 2+ channels and synapses◮ Synapse converts electrochemical signal to pure chemical◮ Depolarization <strong>of</strong> presynaptic membrane will cause Ca 2+channels to open, increase calcium concentration inside cell andinitiate fusion <strong>of</strong> synaptic vesicles to the membrane◮ Fusion should be quickly stopped (one <strong>of</strong> mechanisms isretro-neurotransmitters like endocannabinoids)<strong>Shipunov</strong> (MSU) <strong>Advanced</strong> <strong>Cell</strong> <strong>Biology</strong>. <strong>Lecture</strong> <strong>31</strong> April 17, 2013 18 / 24
