General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | mutations in palmitoyl-protein thioesterase Ppt1 genetically interact with temperature sensitive mutations in the Drosophila dynamin gene shibire, accelerating the paralytic behavior of shibire mutants at 27°C. Ppt1-deficient larvae show an increase in miniature excitatory junctional potentials and a significant depression of evoked excitatory junctional potentials in response to repetitive stimulation. In Ppt1-mutant larvae, there is a significant decrease in fluorescent endocytic tracer FM1-43 uptake at the mutant neuromuscular junction. Ppt1-deficient and Ppt1 point mutant larvae display defects in locomotion that are consistent with alterations in synaptic function | Drosophila melanogaster |
