Flip open any neuroscience textbook and the depiction of a neuron will be roughly the same: a blobby, amoebalike cell body shooting out a long, thick strand. That strand is the axon, which conducts el ...

The protein dress of a neuron Date: November 2, 2020 Source: Max-Planck-Gesellschaft Summary: New method marks proteins and reveals the receptors in which neurons are dressed.

A single Purkinje neuron was filled with ANNINE dye through a pipette at the cell body (top). A typical neuron has a cell body with many tree-shaped processes called dendrites, and a long cable ...

With a precision of a few micrometers, the study shows, which synapse meets which receptor along the dendrite. Now predictions can be made about the properties of individual nerve cell connections.
