Figure 6. DISC1 genetically interacts with dysbindin in the development of glutamatergic synapses.
A. Synaptic terminal branches of dysbe01028 heterozygous NMJs with DISC1 overexpression (DISC1OE). Green, motor neuron termini labeled with an anti-neuronal antibody (anti-HRP). Magenta, synaptic boutons labeled with anti-Synaptotagmin (SYT). Scale bar, 40 μm.
B–D. Quantification of NMJ synaptogenesis in w (CS10) control and dysb/+ backgrounds. B. Total synaptic bouton area. C. Number of synaptic boutons. D. Individual synaptic bouton size. E. Number of axonal branch points. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 and ***p<0.001 with t-test, n = 10.
