Streptanthus bracteatus Streptanthus bracteatus Streptanthus bracteatus is a species of flowering plant in the mustard family known by the common names bracted jewelflower and bracted twistflower. It is endemic to Texas in the United States. This annual or biennial herb has a branching stem up to 1.2 meters tall. It is hairless and generally waxy in texture. The basal leaves have lobed or toothed blades on long petioles, and the leaves higher on the stem have smooth or toothed edges. The inflorescence is a raceme of flowers and bracts. Each flower has a bell-shaped calyx of sepals and four purple petals which
Calyx of Held sensitivity. Both low-threshold K channels and high-threshold delayed rectifier-type K channels are present in presynaptic neurons. There are four low-threshold K channels present: K1.1, K1.2, K1.3, and K7.5. K1.1 and K1.2 are located in the transition zone between the axon and the terminal, while K1.3 K7.5 are located in the calyx. There is a calcium activated potassium channel expressed in the calyx, however this type of channel does not contribute to neurotransmitter release. Within the span of one week, mice subjects (P7 to P14) showed that the density of the K1 and K3 low threshold channels increases, which in turn
