Note

Neuronal response or adaption to a changing environment relies on the modulation of synaptic function. How this modulation is achieved remains controversial. In this issue of Neuron, Sugie et al. (2015) now report that active zones of Drosophila photoreceptors undergo activity-dependent changes in their molecular composition.
