Neurexin/nrx-1 is required for DVB neurite outgrowth following adolescent starvation stress. (A) Genomic locus of nrx-1 shown 5′ to 3′ with long and short isoforms included; red bar indicates region deleted in nrx-1(wy778) and red asterisk indicates point mutation of early stop in nrx-1(gk246237), referred to in figures as nrx-1(gk). (B) Confocal z-stack maximum projections of DVB neuron in fed control and fed and mid-L4 stressed nrx-1(wy778) males at day 1 of adulthood. Bar, 10 μm. Quantification of (C) total neurite length and (D) neurite junctions for DVB in fed control and fed and mid-L4 stressed nrx-1(wy778) males at day 1. (E) Confocal z-stack maximum projections of DVB neuron in fed control and fed and mid-L4 stressed nrx-1(gk246237) males at day 1 of adulthood. Bar, 10 μm. Quantification of (F) total neurite length and (G) neurite junctions for DVB in fed control and fed and mid-L4 stressed nrx-1(gk246237) males at day 1.
