Effects of sei mutation on NMJ synaptic morphology in larvae and adults.
A) SeiP mutants display increased branching at the larval neuromuscular junction (NMJ). n = 11–12. B) No difference in the number of boutons was observed between seiP mutants and controls at the larval NMJ. n = 11-12/genotype. C-D) Representative 63x confocal z-stack images of larval NMJs stained with anti-HRP antibody labeling neuronal processes. E-F) No differences were observed in number of branches or bouton number at the NMJ of adult ventral abdominal muscles. n = 7/genotype. G-H) Representative 63x confocal z-stack images of adult abdominal NMJs stained with anti-HRP antibody labeling neuronal processes. Data are presented as mean ±SEM, **p < 0.01 (Student’s t-test). Scale bars are 20μm.
