1 | Richards, Jackson | Chasing channels: Progress in calcium channel localization in the C. Elegans synapse | Calcium channels play a crucial role in neurotransmission by facilitating the flow of calcium ions necessary for synaptic vesicle fusion and neurotransmitter release. Different types of calcium channels participate in this process in the neurons of the nematode C. elegans. L- and N-type channels res... | Calcium channels; Synaptic vesicles; Caenorhabditis elegans | 2013-05 | |
2 | Prestgard-Duke, Michael | Dynamin localization in Caenorhabditis Elegans | Dynamin is a 100-KDa GTPase that is essential for endocytosis. The classic model of endocytosis is a sequential mechanism: first, cell membrane is bent and internalized via the formation of a clathrin coat; next, dynamin facilitates GTP hydrolysis, resulting in membrane scission as the newly formed ... | Caenorhabditis elegans; Guanosine triphosphatase; Endocytosis | 2014-05 |
