Review – Experiments reproduced 1. Basal AMPAR numbers (Cottrell et al., 2000) 2. Changes in synaptic strength after blocking exo/endocytosis (Luscher et al., 1999) 3. Changes in synaptic strength during LTP expression (O’Connor et al., 2005) 4. Slow exchange of GluR1/2 with GluR2/3 after LTP (McCormack et al., 2006) 5. Changes in synaptic strength during LTD expression, stimulation frequency dependence (Dudek and Bear, 1992) 6. Saturation of LTD (Dudek and Bear, 1993). Biophysical model of AMPA receptor trafficking and its regulation during LTP/LTD – p.17/23
Conclusions 1. Significant fraction of PSD receptors are mobile Consistent with Groc et al., 2004; Ashby et al., 2006 Requires PSD-ESM barrier Required for exocytosis blockade time-course Required for LTD saturation 2. Significant diffusive impedance at spine neck Consistent with Ashby et al., 2006 Required for endocytosis blockade time-course Required for LTP time-course
Biophysical model of AMPA receptor trafficking and its regulation during LTP/LTD – p.18/23
Conclusions 3. Available scaffolding proteins are saturated with AMPAR under basal conditions Required for just about everything Hypothesis: “slot proteins” encode memory 4. Exocytosis of intracellular GluR1/2 during LTP must combine synaptic targeting Consistent with Schnell et al., 2002 Requires increased hopping, binding rate (e.g. stargazin) Requires additional scaffolding proteins Required for LTP time-course Biophysical model of AMPA receptor trafficking and its regulation during LTP/LTD – p.19/23
Conclusions 5. Slow exchange of GluR1/2 with GluR2/3 after LTP requires maintenance of additional scaffolding proteins Required for exchange time-course 6. GRIP to PICK1 exchange must be accompanied by loss of scaffolding proteins Consistent with Colledge et al., 2003 Required for LTD time-course and saturation
