L‐glutamate as an excitatory transmitter at the Drosophila larval neuromuscular junction.

How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Mushroom body output neurons encode valence and guide memory-based action selection in Drosophila (2014, background): “For example, we do not know the sign of action of glutamate in the targets of glutamatergic MBONs, as this depends on the receptor expressed by the target cells (Xia et al., 2005; Jan and Jan, 1976; Liu and Wilson, 2013).”
Characterization of engineered channelrhodopsin variants with improved properties and kinetics. (2009, result): “The reversal potentials calculated from the modified GHK equation with the fitted permeability ratios differed only slightly ( 13 ) with the same permeability ratios, demonstrating that Chang’s assumption was reasonably valid in our case.”
Altered Electrical Properties in DrosophilaNeurons Developing without Synaptic Transmission (2001, background): “In Cha ts2 raised at 29°C, stimulation of the axons of aCC/RP2 continues to evoke excitatory junctional currents (EJCs) in the target muscles, demonstrating that their ability to release neurotransmitter at the NMJ (L-glutamate; Jan and Jan, 1976) is unaffected (R. A. Baines, unpublished data).”
