Abstract excerpt
Synaptotagmin is a synaptic vesicle specific protein that binds calcium and phospholipids in vitro and is required for calcium-regulated fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane. We have examined the possible requirement for synaptotagmin in axonal outgrowth by following neuronal development in Drosophila embryos deficient for the synaptotagmin gene. We find that synaptotagmin is expressed...
