Cholesterol modulates acetylcholine receptor diffusion by tuning confinement sojourns and nanocluster stability

Translational motion of neurotransmitter receptors is key for determining receptor number at the synapse and hence, synaptic efficacy. We combine live-cell STORM superresolution microscopy of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) with single-particle tracking, mean-squared displacement (MSD), tur...
