“…(2) and (3), where r(x, t) and s(x, t) are the deterministic continuum fields associated with N α , the receptor and scaffold diffusion coefficients ν α = a 2 / (2τ α ), and the polynomials F α (r, s) describe the mean-field reaction dynamics [55][56][57]. Table 1 summarizes the additive contributions to F α (r, s) implied by the standard formalism of chemical dynamics [40,41,[55][56][57] for the reaction kinetics considered here [30,31]. Unless indicated otherwise we use, consistent with experiments on glycine receptors and gephyrin scaffolds [5,11,17,18,21,25,30,31], the diffusion coefficients ν r = 10 2 ν s = 10 −2 µm 2 /s, with the corresponding hopping rates 1/τ α = 2ν α /a 2 in eq.…”
