Characterization of the role of the Synaptotagmin family as calcium sensors in facilitation and asynchronous neurotransmitter release

Ca²⁺ influx into presynaptic nerve terminals activates synaptic vesicle exocytosis by triggering fast synchronous fusion and a slower asynchronous release pathway. In addition, a brief rise in Ca²⁺ after consecutive action potentials has been correlated with a form of short-term synaptic plasticity...
