Site of nucleotide substitution in mutant inferred by FlyBase based on reported amino acid change.
brp5.45 mutants exhibit significantly reduced survival rates and motor abilities.
In brp5.45 mutants, with poorly clustered Ca[2+] channels, the EPSC amplitudes are reduced to approximately 10% of control amplitudes, The amplitude of miniature EPSCs is not significantly affected.
Depression decay during paired-pulse stimulation is stronger in brp5.45 mutants, compared to controls. Consistent with the altered paired-pulse ratio, the amplitude of the second EPSC in the train is also significantly reduced.
brp5.45 mutant synapses display enhanced depression during sustained high frequency transmission. Consistently, both the first and second components of recovery are slower.
T bars are missing at the neuromuscular junction in mutant third instar larvae.
