Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

The expression of Nrx-1Scer\UAS.cLa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU leads to a significant increase in the number of synaptic boutons at the third instar larval neuromuscular junction, as compared to controls.

Expression of Nrx-1Scer\UAS.cLa pan-neuronally using Scer\GAL4elav-C155 or Scer\GAL4C380 significantly enhances the formation of synaptic boutons compared to wild-type. Increasing Nrx-1 gene dosage in all neurons by one copy results in over a 30% increase in the number of synaptic boutons, while increasing it by two copies results in more than 40% enhancement.

Expression of either one or two copies of Nrx-1Scer\UAS.cLa in muscle cells, under the control of Scer\GAL4C57 does not result in any significant change in bouton number.

Statement
Reference

The third instar larval neuromuscular junctions of individuals that both express Nrx-1Scer\UAS.cLa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU and are witB11/witA12 transheterozygous show a decrease in the number of synaptic boutons similar to what is observed in witB11/witA12 transheterozygotes, rather than the increase induced by the expression of Nrx-1Scer\UAS.cLa.

Comments

The expression of Nrx-1Scer\UAS.cLa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU rescues the decreased number of synaptic boutons observed at the Nrx-1273 homozygous third instar larval neuromuscular junction.
