Figure 8. The age-dependent shift in electrophysiological response at the muscle 6/7 NMJ is controlled by JhI-21.

Figure 8

Cumulative frequency histograms of sEJC (“mini”) amplitudes from third-instar feeding and wandering Drosophila larvae. Leftward shift in wandering control animals indicates an age-dependent decrease in the abundance of current-conducting postsynaptic glutamate receptors, i.e smaler synaptic currents. This shift is inverted to rightward in the JhI-21 KG/Df1 allele. N = 4–5 animals (representing 10–17 NMJs), 2400–3600 events measured per phenotype; Statistical test: Kolmogorov-Smirnov test (***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001).
