Chapter 15, Problem 13Q
Summary Introduction

To explain: The reason why signal transmission at the synapse would require dynamin.

Introduction: Neurons are the cells which are mainly focused to communicate with the other cells by using electrochemistry as their communication language. The junction between two adjacent neurons is called synapse where the pre synaptic neuron release neuro transmitter. A small bulge at the end of the terminal branch of presynaptic neuron is called synaptic knob. There are several kinds of proteins known to be involved in synaptic transmission. Dynamin is such a kind of synaptic transmission protein found in Drosophila and no transmission of signals would pass one neuron to its adjacent one without the help of dynamin.
