A spectrin-actin membrane periodic skeleton defines the distribution of ion channels that support spike conduction down axons, but it is not known how calcium and potassium channels are organized at the soma to control spike output patterns. The hippocampal pyramidal cell slow AHP is generated by a CaRyK protein complex of Cav1.3 calcium, RyR2, and IK potassium channels. Super resolution imaging and dimension reduction identified the spatial organization of CaRyK proteins in relation to the spectrin cytoskeleton. Rows of CaRyK protein clusters with 150 nm periodicity extended to branchpoints to align with a non-rigid polygonal structure of spectrin {beta}II and the actin linking proteins actinin I and II. The slow AHP was highly dependent on the integrity of the spectrin cytoskeleton that colocalized CaRyK proteins. The data indicate that the somatic slow AHP is generated by CaRyK proteins distributed as functional ion channel nodes across a spectrin cytoskeleton. TeaserThe functional organization of ion channels underlying a slow AHP depends on a polygonal spectrin cytoskeleton at the soma

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
