Abstract
Rectifying properties of electrotonic synapses established by the crayfish giant motor fiber are associated with a more negative resting membrane potential in the presynaptic than in the postsynaptic side of the junction. An increased junctional conductance and bidirectional transmission are produced, with almost no delay, by inverting this polarization.Mesh:
