Detailed Description

Reference

Neuromuscular junction (NMJ) morphology is abnormal in Dap160Δ1/Dap160Δ3 third instar larvae; boutons are irregularly spaced and large boutons are surrounded by smaller satellite boutons. Extra branches and boutons are apparent in the mutant larvae. In 5mM Ca2+ at 22oC, the amplitude of the excitatory junctional potential (EJP) at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) in Dap160Δ1/Dap160Δ3 third instar larvae is not different from that of controls. The EJP amplitude at the NMJ of Dap160Δ1/Dap160Δ3 third instar larvae is normal in 5mM Ca2+ at 36oC. In 0.5mM Ca2+, the frequency of miniature EJPs (mEJPs) at the NMJ is increased more than 2 fold in Dap160Δ1/Dap160Δ3 larvae compared to controls at 22oC. mEJPs with an unusually large amplitude are seen at both 22oC and 36oC. Dap160Δ1/Dap160Δ3 larvae show a mild defect in endocytosis at 22oC (assayed by dye uptake in third instar fillet preparations), which is exacerbated at 36oC. Dap160Δ1/Dap160Δ3 larvae show a stimulation-dependent decrease in EJP amplitude when stimulated at 10Hz. This decrease is more severe at 36oC than at 22oC.
