Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

DabEC1 mutants exhibit a temperature-sensitive impairment of motor behavior and a synaptic phenotype.

At the restrictive temperature of 33[o]C, DabEC1 mutants produce a wild-type excitatory post-synaptic current (EPSC), indicating that basic properties of synaptic function are preserved. In contrast, subsequent stimulation produces a clear activity-dependent reduction in EPSC amplitude with respect to wild-type. A milder form of this phenotype is seen at 20[o]C. Prolonged stimulation of DabEC1 synapses results in strong depression and a sustained reduced steady-state level of neurotransmitter release.

DabEC1/Df(3L)Exel6130 mutants display a disruption synaptic vesicle endocytosis. Synaptic vesicle size is increased in these flies with respect to wild-type. Boutons exhibit large cisternae-like membrane structure rarely seen in wild-type. The number of docked synaptic vesicles at DabEC1/Df(3L)Exel6130 synapses is the same as in wild-type, indicating that synaptic vesicles are present at release sites but unable to fuse efficiently with the plasma membrane.

DabEC1 mutants produce an activity-dependent reduction in excitatory post-synaptic current (EPSC) amplitude with rapid onset during train stimulation. Vesicle size is increased in these mutants.
