FlyBase curator comment: this entry is used to capture phenotypic information when the particular allele (or allele combination) used by the author could not be determined but the context of the experiment suggests that the phenotype being described is some kind of loss of function.
Syt1unspecified homozygous mutant larvae show neurotransmission defects at neuromuscular junctions as they fail to support calcium-triggered neurotransmitter release: flat excitatory postsynaptic current trace (recorded in 2 mM external Ca[2+]) with zero amplitude, reduced cumulative vesicle release (defined by charge transfer), high frequency of miniature excitatory junction currents.
Syt1unspecified is rescued by Scer\GAL4elav-C155/Syt1UAS.Tag:MYC
Syt1unspecified is partially rescued by Syt1elav.PD
Syt1unspecified is not rescued by Scer\GAL4elav-C155/Syt1D362A.UAS.Tag:MYC
The neurotransmission defects at neuromuscular junctions in (they fail to support calcium-triggered neurotransmitter release: flat excitatory postsynaptic current, recorded in 2 mM external Ca[2+] with zero amplitude, reduced cumulative vesicle release (defined by charge transfer), high frequency of miniature excitatory junction currents) characteristic for Syt1unspecified mutant third instar larvae can be rescued by Scer\GAL4elav-C155-driven expression of Syt1Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC but not Syt1D362A.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC in the mutant background.
