brat11/brat2L-192-9 larvae show an increase in total bouton number and in number of satellite boutons at the neuromuscular junction compared to wild type. Ultrastructurally, the presynaptic mitochondria and postsynaptic subsynaptic reticulum appear largely normal in the mutant boutons. However, vesicle density within the bouton is moderately, but significantly, reduced and a subpopulation of vesicles are larger than in wild type. There are fewer synaptic vesicles within a 200nm radius of the T-bar than normal, and the mean synaptic vesicle diameter within the active zone is significantly increased. There is a significant increase in the number of presynaptic membrane ruffles within the active zone and the mean length of the postsynaptic density is increased.

brat2L-150-11/brat2L-192-9 larvae show an increase in total bouton number and in number of satellite boutons at the neuromuscular junction compared to wild type.

brat2L-192-9/Df(2L)pr-A16 larvae show an increase in number of satellite boutons at the neuromuscular junction compared to wild type.

The mean EJP amplitude and mEJP frequency is not significantly different from wild type at the neuromuscular junction of brat11/brat2L-192-9 and brat2L-150-11/brat2L-192-9 larvae. However, in both cases, mean mEJP amplitude is increased compared to wild type. Quantal content is significantly reduced in brat11/brat2L-192-9 larvae.

The neuromuscular junctions of brat11/brat2L-192-9 larvae show reduced uptake of FM1-43 dye compared to wild type, indicating a defect in endocytosis.

The neuromuscular junctions of brat11/brat2L-192-9 and brat2L-150-11/brat2L-192-9 larvae show reduced uptake of FM1-43 dye compared to wild type, indicating a defect in endocytosis.

Mutant germline clones do not show any obvious defects in oogenesis.

brat2L-192-9 neuroblast clones are larger than wild-type clones and have a significantly increased mitotic index. No axons can be observed extending from daughter cells in these clones.

Embryos derived from females carrying homozygous germ line clones have posterior defects.

The neuromuscular junction overgrowth phenotype (increased total number of boutons and increased number of satellite boutons) of brat11/brat2L-192-9 larvae is not suppressed by either witA12/+ or tkv7/+.

The neuromuscular junction overgrowth phenotype (increased total number of boutons and increased number of satellite boutons) of brat11/brat2L-192-9 larvae is significantly suppressed by Mad12/+ and by Df(2L)BSC162/+.

brat2L-192-9/+ ; Dadj1E4/+ double heterozygotes show a significant increase in the number of satellite boutons at the larval neuromuscular junction compared to wild type.

The reduced uptake of FM1-43 dye seen at the neuromuscular junction in brat11/brat2L-192-9 larvae is significantly suppressed by Mad12/+ and by Df(2L)BSC162/+.

Comments

Expression of bratScer\UAS.T:Zzzz\FLAG under the control of either Scer\GAL4elav.PU or Scer\GAL4RapGAP1-OK6 at 18[o]C partially rescues the increase in number of satellite boutons at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) seen in brat11/brat2L-192-9 larvae. Expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Mhc.PW at 18[o]C does not rescue the NMJ phenotype.
