Figure 6.

apm-2(e840) neuromuscular junction ultrastructure. Representative images of neuromuscular junctions in the ventral nerve cord from wild-type, EG3622 dpy-23(e840), EG4029 dpy-23(e840) Ex[Ppdi-2∷APM-2∷GFP], and EG4213 dpy-23(e840) Ex[Prab-3∷APM-2∷GFP] adult hermaphrodites. apm-2(e840) shows reduced numbers of synaptic vesicles. Vesicle number is restored in the neuronal-rescued animals but not in the skin-rescued animals. Bar, 200 nm. SV, synaptic vesicle; mt, microtubule; dense proj, dense projection.
