Top: UNC-11 ∆AD synapses exhibit enlarged synaptic vesicles and abnormal endosome-like structures. Representative transmission electron micrographs of synapses from wild-type N2, unc-11 mutants, Full-length UNC-11-rescued, and UNC-11∆AD-rescued unc-11 mutants. Dense projections are highlighted in orange. The arrow marks an endosome-like structure (ELS, >100 nm in diameter). Scale bar, 100 nm. Bottom: UNC-11 condensates promote the growth of F-actin. Full-length UNC-11 (UNC-11 FL) was labeled with Pacific Blue (cyan), and F-actin was visualized using Alexa Fluor 488–phalloidin (yellow). G-actin (2 µM) and phalloidin (0.2 µM) were added to samples containing UNC-11 droplets, and fluorescence images were collected every 3 min for 48 min. Scale bar, 5 µm.

Proteins positioned within the #synapticcleft govern #synapse formation, maintenance and #neurotransmission.
But the exact architecture of this space is still a mystery. IPI’s new #NRXN and #NLGN antibodies could help reveal the blueprint.
