Cells with overexpressed rat SytIV were unaltered in basal release probability, Ca2+ dependence of release, short-term plasticity, & fusion pore kinetics. Mutant Syt I (less Ca2+ affinity) reduced release probability & altered Ca2+ dependence of release.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
