Abstract
Being the primary mean of translating the chemical signal into the electric signal in neuromuscular junction, the nACh receptor is the first kind of ligand-gated channel that its kinetic structure has been known clearly. The next problem is to know quantitatively how it works in a living system. In this paper, we construct a piece-wise deterministic process to mimic the membrane voltage fluctuation driven by a single nACh receptor. The power spectrum of the voltage fluctuation is solved analytically, which reveals the 1/ω4-type noise.
