Quantifying the effects of elastic collisions and non-covalent binding on glutamate receptor trafficking in the post-synaptic density.
One mechanism of information storage in neurons is believed to be determined by the strength of synaptic contacts. The strength of an excitatory synapse is partially due to the concentration of a particular type of ionotropic glutamate receptor (AMPAR) in the post-synaptic density (PSD). AMPAR conce...
