Synaptotagmin-1 functions as the Ca(2+)-sensor for spontaneous release

Spontaneous ‘mini’ release occurs at all synapses, but its nature remains enigmatic. Here, we show that in murine cortical neurons, >95% of spontaneous release is induced by Ca(2+)-binding to synaptotagmin-1, the Ca(2+)-sensor for fast synchronous neurotransmitter release. Thus, spontaneous and e...
