Several billion nerve cells communicate with each other in the body so that humans and other living beings can perceive and react to their environment.
Cross-linking mass spectrometry helps identify the interaction sites of the proteins.
Halle: A complicated interaction between different proteins is needed for information to pass from one nerve cell to the next. A team of researchers now managed to study this process in the synaptic vesicles, which play an important role in this process.
The study led by a team at the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU)T appeared in the journal Nature Communications.
