Synaptogenesis involves the transformation of a growth cone into synaptic boutons specialized
for transmitter release. In Drosophila embryos lacking the α 2 δ-3 subunit of presynaptic, …

Actin, spectrin, and associated molecules form a periodic, submembrane cytoskeleton in the
axons of neurons. For a better understanding of this membrane-associated periodic …

The morphological transition of growth cones to synaptic boutons characterizes synaptogenesis.
Here we have isolated mutations in immaculate connections (imac; CG8566), a …

In mammals, dopamine 2-like receptors are expressed in distinct pathways within the central
nervous system, as well as in peripheral tissues. Selected neuronal D2-like receptors play …

Morphometric studies in multicellular organisms are generally performed manually because
of the complexity of multidimensional features and lack of appropriate tools for handling …

Dopamine is an important neurotransmitter in vertebrate and invertebrate nervous systems
and is widely distributed in the brain of the honey bee, Apis mellifera. We report here the …

10.7554/eLife.29276.001 Active zone proteins cluster synaptic vesicles at presynaptic
terminals and coordinate their release. In forward genetic screens, we isolated a novel …

Voltage-dependent calcium channels regulate many aspects of neuronal biology, including
synaptic transmission. In addition to their α 1 subunit, which encodes the essential voltage …

Synapse formation defines neuronal connectivity and is thus essential for neuronal circuit
assembly. Trans-synaptic interactions of cell adhesion molecules are thought to induce …
