Figure 1. rg mutants exhibit altered synaptic structure.

Figure 1

Confocal images of the neuromuscular junction from third-instar larvae stained with antibodies: anti-Dlg (green) anti-HRP (red) and Phalloidin (blue). (A) Canton-S. (B–H) In rg mutant alleles, bouton numbers are decreased and boutons are slightly enlarged. (E) Few axonal branching and vacuous spacing in the boutons are seen (arrow). rg mutant alleles rgp2 (G) and rgp5 (H) exhibit less severe phenotype than the other gamma alleles. All images (A–H) are from Muscles 6 and 7 in segment 3.
