Here, we examine the time course of release at inhibitory basket cell-Purkinje cell synapses and show that it is independent of [Ca2+]o. Modeling of Ca2+-dependent transmitter release suggests that the invariant time course of release critically depends on tight coupling between Ca2+ channels and release sensors. Experiments with exogenous Ca2+ chelators reveal that channel-sensor coupling at basket cell-Purkinje cell synapses is very tight, with a mean distance of 10–20 nm. Thus, tight channel-sensor coupling provides a mechanistic explanation for the apparent [Ca2+]o independence of the time course of release.","lang":"eng"}],"department":[{"_id":"PeJo"}],"date_published":"2014-12-09T00:00:00Z","publication_status":"published","scopus_import":1,"publisher":"eLife Sciences Publications","user_id":"4435EBFC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:55:19Z","oa":1,"oa_version":"Submitted Version","status":"public","quality_controlled":"1","title":"Nanodomain coupling explains Ca^2+ independence of transmitter release time course at a fast central synapse"}
