Electron Microscopic Tomography Reveals Discrete Transcleft Elements at Excitatory and Inhibitory Synapses

Electron microscopy has revealed an abundance of material in the clefts of synapses in the mammalian brain, and the biochemical and functional characteristics of proteins occupying synaptic clefts are well documented. However, the detailed spatial organization of the proteins in the synaptic clefts...
