Abstract
The PSD-95 homolog, DLG1, is important for excitatory synapse structure and function throughout the Drosophila nervous system. In this issue of Cell Reports Methods, Parisi et al. present a tool, dlg1[4K], that enables cell-specific DLG1 visualization without altering basal synaptic physiology. This tool will potentially enhance our understanding of neuronal development and function in both circuits and individual synapses.
