Clostridial neurotoxins (botulinum toxins and tetanus toxin) disrupt neurotransmitter release by cleaving neuronal SNARE proteins. We generated transgenic flies allowing for conditional expression of different botulinum toxins and evaluated their pot

Although age-related changes in synaptic plasticity are an important focus within neuroscience, little is known about ultrastructural changes of synaptic morphology during aging. Here we report how aging affects synaptic ultrastructure by using fluor

The neuromodulatory function of dopamine (DA) is an inherent feature of nervous systems of all animals. To learn more about the function of neural DA in Drosophila , we generated mutant flies that lack tyrosine hydroxylase, and thus DA biosynthesis,

Several aspects of locomotor control have been ascribed to the central complex of the insect brain; however, the role of distinct substructures of this complex is not well known. The tay bridge1 (tay1) mutant of Drosophila melanogaster was originally

Associative plasticity is a basic characteristic of behaviour. We analysed associative olfactory learning in larval Drosophila, using a reciprocal conditioning assay. One group of animals was rewarded with fructose in the presence of odour A but not

Flexible goal-driven orientation requires that the position of a target be stored, especially in case the target moves out of sight. The capability to retain, recall and integrate such positional information into guiding behaviour has been summarized

The ability to learn is universal among animals; we investigate associative learning between odors and “tastants” in larval Drosophila melanogaster. As biologically important gustatory stimuli, like sugars, salts, or bitter substances have many b

SUMMARYAn understanding of associative learning is facilitated if it can be analyzed in a simple animal like the fruit fly Drosophila. Here, we introduce the first visual associative learning paradigm for larval Drosophila; this is remarkable as larv

Summary Drosophila melanogaster flies cross surmountable gaps in their walkway of widths exceeding their body length with an astounding maneuver but avoid attempts at insurmountable gaps by visual width estimation [1]. Different mutant lines affect s
