Fig. 2. Synaptic vesicle localization is altered in lin-17 mutants. Synaptic vesicles were visualized in PLM using the mec-7::snb-1-gfp reporter. Arrows indicate synaptic vesicle (SNB-1-GFP) enrichment and triangles indicate PLM bodies. Autofluorescence in intestine is labeled (int.). (A) Wild-type mec-7::snb-1-gfp; synaptic vesicles are enriched in anterior PLM process. (B) lin-17; synaptic vesicles accumulate in long posterior PLM process. (C) lin-17; synaptic vesicles are enriched in both anterior and posterior PLM processes when they are symmetric in length. Anterior is leftwards; dorsal is towards the top. (D) PLM polarity defects in lin-17 mutants and lin-17 mutants harboring mec-4::lin-17a or mec-4::lin-17b extrachromosomal arrays. n=24-162 PLMs.
