Functional Analysis of the Vesicular Glutamate Transporter 2 in Specific Neuronal Circuits of the Brain

A key issue in neuroscience is to determine the connection between neuronal circuits and behaviour. In the adult brain, all neuronal circuits include a glutamatergic component. Three proteins designated Vesicular glutamate transporter 1-3 (VGLUT1-3) possess the capability of packaging glutamate into...
