Nanoscale visualization of functional adhesion/excitability nodes at the intercalated disc

In myelinated fibres conduction and adhesion proteins aggregate at discrete foci, but it is unclear if this organization is present in other excitable cells. Using nanoscale visualization and in silico techniques, the authors show that adhesion/excitability nodes exist at the intercalated discs of a...
