A genetic screen for suppressors of Drosophila NSF2 neuromuscular junction overgrowth.

Genetics - 1 Jun 2005

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila larval neuromuscular system serves as a valuable model for studying the genes required for synaptic development and function. N-Ethylmaleimide sensitive factor (NSF) is a molecule known to be important in vesicular trafficking but neural expression of a dominant negative form of NSF2 induces an unexpected overgrowth of the Drosophila larval neuromuscular synapse. We have taken a genetic approach to...
