Dysbe01028 homozygous wandering third instar larvae display a significantly increased rate of depletion and a significantly decreased rate of recovery of the synaptic vesicle pool upon high-frequency stimulation of the neuromuscular junction, as compared to controls.
Under rest conditions, the neuromuscular junction presynaptic boutons of Dysbe01028 homozygous wandering third instar larvae show no significant differences in the size and density of endosomes, in the intensity of presynaptic T-bars, in the size, number and density of synaptic vesicles, and in the density of tubular endosomes, but show a significant increase in the density of cisternal endosomes, as compared to controls. Stimulation with 90mM potassium chloride leads to a significant decrease in the size and density of Dysbe01028 presynaptic bouton endosomes as compared to both unstimulated mutants and stimulated wild-type controls, and a significant decrease in the density of Dysbe01028 presynaptic bouton vesicles as compared to unstimulated mutants but not to stimulated wild-type controls, whereas this stimulation has no significant effect either in the size and density of endosomes or in the density of synaptic vesicles in wild-type presynaptic boutons; stimulation with potassium chloride also leads to the density of cisternal endosomes and tubular endosomes in Dysbe01028 presynaptic boutons to be significantly decreased and increased, respectively, as compared to both unstimulated mutants and stimulated wild-type controls, whereas this stimulation leads to a significant increase in the density of cisternal endosomes, but not tubular endosomes, in wild-type presynaptic bouton endosomes.
Dysbe01028 heterozygote third instar larvae do not show any defects in the number or size of boutons nor the axonal branching at neuromusclular junctions.
Dysbe01028 homozygous as well as heterozygous mutant third instar larvae display increased number of boutons on neuromuscular junctions compared to controls, but not when the larvae are kept on 'DD' food (after Dickman and Davis, 2009) as it induces higher number of boutons in the control flies and this is not elevated further in Dysbe01028 mutants. Heterozygous larvae also show reduced number of dendritic branches as well as the total dendrite length in class IV dendritic arborizing neurons.
Wild-type synapses increase their quantal content following Phillanthatoxin-433 (PhTx-433) treatment. In contrast, Dysbe01028 animals do not display a homeostatic increase in quantal content.
Dysbe01028 has no effect on excitatory junction potential (EJP) amplitude or miniature EJP frequency compared to controls. mEJP amplitude is not altered in these flies. Homozygous Dysbe01028 mutant flies fail to show the increase in quantal content normally observed in response to philanotoxin, and this phenotype is not seen in heterozygotes. The rate of vesicle depletion at both low and high frequency stimulation is similar to controls.
Expression of DysbScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 in a Dysbe01028/+ mutant background has no effect on excitatory junction potential (EJP) amplitude or miniature EJP frequency compared to controls.
Homozygous Dysbe01028 mutant flies exhibit deficits in short term olfactory habituation. This phenotype is not observed in the heterozygote.
Dysbe01028/Df(3L)BSC416 mutant flies exhibit deficits in short term olfactory habituation. This phenotype is not observed in either heterozygote.
Dysbe01028 heterozygotes do not exhibit defects in synaptic homeostasis.
Homozygous dysbe01028 mutant larvae show significantly attenuated excitatory junctional currents in the neuromuscular junction compared to controls. This attenuation is seen at various calcium concentrations and without significant morphological changes.
The dopamine concentration in dysbe01028 mutant heads is around twofold of that in wild type cells.
Homozygous dysbe01028 mutant adult flies exhibit defects in memory retention following exposure to an odor previously associated without electric shock. Memory is affected at both 1h and 3h after single session training and 24 hours after repetitive training. The sensorimotor responses necessary for performing the learning task are not altered. This phenotype can be rescued by feeding flies with the NMDA receptor agonist, glycine.
dysbe01028 mutant flies show elevated activity in response to light taps on the container compared to wild type flies of the same age. This hyperactivity can be significantly rescued by feeding flies resperine or α-methyl-p-tyrosine (AMPT).
dysbe01028 mutant flies do not exhibit the strong wild type bias towards females, courting male flies as well as female flies. No phenotypes are seen in either of the single heterozygotes. This phenotype can be significantly rescued by feeding flies resperine or α-methyl-p-tyrosine (AMPT).
Homozygous and dysbe01028/Df(3L)BSC416 neuromuscular junctions show a complete absence of homeostatic compensation (increase in quantal content) after treatment with philanthotoxin-433 for 10 minutes.
Bouton number and active zone density at the neuromuscular junction are normal in mutant larvae.
Homozygous larvae show no significant change in baseline synaptic transmission in 0.5mM extracellular Ca[2+] compared to controls. However, at reduced extracellular Ca[2+] (0.2 to 0.4mM) , baseline synaptic transmission is significantly impaired in the mutants relative to controls. At reduced extracellular Ca[2+] both paired-pulse facilitation and facilitation that occurs during a prolonged stimulus train are increased in the mutants.

The expression of PldnScer\UAS.cCa under the control of Scer\GAL4RapGAP1-OK6 does not suppress either the increased rate of depletion or the decreased rate of recovery of the synaptic vesicle pool upon high-frequency stimulation of the neuromuscular junction exhibited by Dysbe01028 homozygous wandering third instar larvae; homozygosity for Dysbe01028 also does not significantly affect the total quanta release during neurotransmission across shi1 homozygous wandering third instar larval neuromuscular junctions at the restrictive 32[o]C temperature.
The increased number of boutons on neuromuscular junctions observed in third instar larvae mutant for any of the following alleles: Arpc1Q25sd (in heterozygous state), Pldndel (homozygous) or Dysbe01028 (either homozygous or heterozygous) is restored to wild-type levels in both Arpc1Q25sd/+;Pldndel/+ and Arpc1Q25sd/+;Dysbe01028/+ double heterozygotes.
The reduced number of dendritic branches as well as the total dendrite length in class IV dendritic arborizing neurons characteristic for Dysbe01028 heterozugous larvae is not modified by combination with a single copy of Arpc1Q25sd.

Blos1EY06269 Dysbe01028 double heterozygotes have no effect on excitatory junction potential (EJP) amplitude or miniature EJP frequency compared to controls. Synaptic vesicles are similar in size to controls. The increase in quantal content normally observed in response to philanotoxin is not seen. One copy of Dysbe01028 suppresses the dominant changes in mEJP amplitude and quantal content seen in Blos1EY06269/+ mutant NMJs. The increase in bouton number seen in Blos1EY06269/+ NMJs is also suppressed.
Expression of DysbScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 in a Blos1EY06269/+; Dysbe01028/+ mutant background has no effect on excitatory junction potential (EJP) amplitude or miniature EJP frequency compared to controls. The mEJP amplitude is increased, similar to that seen in Blos1EY06269/+ mutant flies.
One copy of Dysbe01028 suppresses the dominant changes in mEJP amplitude and quantal content seen in Blos1ex65/+ mutant NMJs. The increase in bouton number seen in Blos1ex65/+ NMJs is also suppressed. Dysbe01028 Blos1ex65 double heterozygotes exhibit deficits in short term olfactory habituation. This phenotype is not observed in either heterozygote alone.
Dysbe01028 Blos1ex2 double heterozygotes exhibit deficits in short term olfactory habituation. This phenotype is not observed in either heterozygote alone.
Dysbe01028 heterozygotes that are also heterozygous for Df(2L)Exel6277 (which removes the entire Snapin locus), exhibit significantly less homeostatic compensation compared with either heterozygous mutant alone. Co-expression of SnapinScer\UAS.cDa in motorneurons (under the control of Scer\GAL4VGlut-OK371) restores homeostasis towards control levels (although this rescue is not complete).
Double-heterozygous Syt1AD4/+ ; Dysbe01028/+ flies exhibit normal homeostatic compensation.

The neuromuscular junction bouton phenotype characteristic for third instar larvae expressing Hsap\DISC1Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 under the control of Scer\GAL4tub.PU is enhanced by combination with a single copy of the Dysbe01028 allele: not only is the total bouton areas decreased further, in addition the total number of boutons as well as their individual size is significantly reduced compared to wild-type, whereas the number of axonal branching points remains normal.
Pan-neuronal expression of Hsap\DTNBP1Scer\UAS.cSa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 rescues the larval neuromuscular junction excitatory junctional current defects and the adult short term memory defects observed in dysbe01028 mutants.
Expression of Hsap\DTNBP1Scer\UAS.cSa in the glia under the control of Scer\GAL4repo partially suppresses the locomotor defects seen in dysbe01028 mutants. The increase in dopamine levels seen in dysbe01028 mutant heads is also suppressed.
