Figure 2. Expression of peptides corresponding to the C terminal of glutamate receptor subunits decreases the amplitude of spontaneous miniature synaptic currents (A) and alters the dendritic arbor development of optic tectal neurons (B).

Gray lines in A are data from neurons expressing GluR1 (top) and GluR2 C terminal peptides (bottom). Black lines are from GFP-expressing control neurons. Adapted from Haas et al. (2006).
