Drosophila motor neuron boutons remodel through membrane blebbing coupled with muscle contraction
Abstract Wired neurons form new presynaptic boutons in response to increased synaptic activity, however the mechanism(s) by which this occurs remains uncertain. Drosophila motor neurons (MNs) have clearly discernible boutons that display robust structural plasticity, being therefore an ideal system...
