Two distinct pools of synaptic vesicles in single presynaptic boutons in a temperature-sensitive Drosophila mutant, shibire.

Abstract excerpt

In a temperature-sensitive Drosophila mutant, shibire, synaptic vesicles are completely depleted in nerve terminals after stimulation at 34 degrees C, but upon returning to 22 degrees C, endocytosis resumes. In this study, synaptic vesicles in the boutons of nerve terminals at the mutant neuromuscular junction were loaded with a fluorescent dye, FM1-43, during vesicle reformation at 22 degrees C after complete...
