10 3. Electron microscopy (1) Docked vesicles (2) Endocytic vesicle biogenesis Rettig & Neher, Science 2002

11 Hayashi et al, PNAS 2008 3. Electron microscopy Defects in synaptic vesicle endocytosis

12 Adrenal gland Chromaffin cells as the model system for vesicle cycling

13 Differences between neurons and chromaffin cells Intracellular vesicle trafficking pathway

14 Voets et al, Neuron 2003 Munc-18 is important for vesicle docking

15 Adrenal gland Chromaffin cells as the model system for vesicle cycling Techniques: Capacitance measurements Amperometry Big vesicle size (150-450 nm in diameter) Oxidizable catecholamine

16 AC and DC current DC - direct current - the polarity of a current source remains the same when the current is DC AC - Alternative current - the polarity of a current source is constantly changing when the current is AC Membrane conductance and capacitance

17 Technique 1: capacitance measurements Time domain technique

18 Technique 1: capacitance measurements Sine-wave technique 1  F/cm 2

19 Whole cell capacitance technique stimulation Capacitance (pF) 60 fF

20 Ca 2+ photolysis NP-EGTA

21 Whole-cell capacitance technique and Ca 2+ photolysis Rettig & Neher, Science 2002

24 Cell-attached capacitance to detect single vesicle fusion Conductance Capacitance Patch pipette Chromaffin cell 0.1 nS 1 fF 0.5 nS 10 ms Conductance Capacitance Fusion pore conductance Fusion pore PM

25 Carbon fiber +700 mV Amperometry detects catecholamine release from single vesicles by oxidization Amperometrical current Quantal size Amperometry Chromaffin cell Fusion pore PM Foot Spike

26 Technique 2: amperometry Amperometry gives information about the release process Analysis of single spikes stand-alone foot kiss-and-run full fusion

27 Different isoform of synaptotagmin controls the choice between full fusion and kiss-and-run Wang et al, Nature 2003

28 Patch amperometry: a method combines amperometry and cell- attached capacitance measurement Simultaneous detections of fusion and neurotransmitter release of same vesicle. Carbon fiber Patch pipette Catecholamine release Vesicle capacitance Fusion dynamics Does the fusion-pore size limit neurotransmitter release? Albillos et al., Nature 1997

29 500 ms 400 pS 100 pS 1 fF 10 pA Amperometrical Im Re Gp 1 pA Amperometrical 50 pS 0.5 pA Fusion-pore Gp Amperometrical signal The neurotransmitter release is limited by the size of fusion pore Gong et al, Nat Cell Biol 2007
