Science. 316: 570-574.)
  • 5_synapses WT dynKO sjKO

    Tomographic EM reconstruction of thick sections of synapses from wild type mouse neurons (left), dynamin 1 KO neurons (center) and synaptojanin 1 KO neurons (right). Blue = synaptic vesicles; green = clathrin coated profiles. (from: Hayashi M, Raimondi A, O’Toole E, Paradise S, Collesi C, Cremona O, Ferguson SM, and De Camilli P. 2008. Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. 105: 2175-2180.)
  • 6_synapse EM

    Electron microscopic image of a synapse in the mouse cerebellum

    Electron tomogram (left) and corresponding reconstruction of tubular plasma membrane invaginations capped by clathrin coated pits (red) in a fibroblast the lack dynamin. (from: Ferguson S, Raimondi A, Paradise S, Shen H, Mesaki K, Destaing O, Ko G, Cremona O, O'Toole E, and De Camilli P. 2009. Dev. Cell. 17: 811-822.)
  • 8_neuron staining

    Immunofluorescence of neurons in culture: presynaptic nerve terminals are visualized by anti-synapsin antibodies (green) (from the work of Shawn Ferguson)
  • 9_dynamin13DKO synapse

    Electron micrograph of a synapse lacking both dynamin 1 and 3. Note the abundance of clathrin coated profiles. (from: Raimondi A, Ferguson SM, Lou X, Armbruster M, Paradise S, Giovedi S, Messa M, Kono N, Takashi J, Cappello V, O’Toole E, Ryan TA, and De Camilli P. 2010. Neuron. 70(6):1100-14.)
  • 10_VPS13A and VPS13C localization

    VPS13A and VPS13C are localized at contacts between the ER and either mitochondria or endo/lysosomes respectively. Top: schematic representation showing that both proteins can also localize at contacts between the ER and lipid droplets. Bottom fluorescence image (green: ER; blue: mitochondria or endo/lysosomes respectively; magenta: VPS13)(Kumar, Leonzino et al. 2018, J. Cell Biol 2018, PMID:30093493)2025 Yale School of Medicine.
