Components of the plasma membrane of growing axons. III. Saxitoxin binding to sodium channels
The density of sodium channels was measured in growing and mature axons of the olfactory nerve of the bullfrog, using as a probe the drug saxitoxin (STX). The toxin binds to control nerves from adult animals in a saturable manner with a dissociation constant of approximately 23 nM at 4 degrees C and...
