The Drosophila stoned locus was identified 25 years
ago on the basis of stress-sensitive behavioral mutants (Grigliatti et al., 1973). The locus is dicistronic and encodes two distinct proteins,
stoned A and stoned B, which are expressed specifically in presynaptic
terminals at central and peripheral synapses. Several stoned mutant alleles cause embryonic lethality,
suggesting that these proteins are essential for synaptic function.
Physiological analyses at the stoned synapse reveal
severe neurotransmission defects, including reduced and asynchronous
neurotransmitter release and rapid fatigue after repetitive
stimulation. At the EM level, stoned synapses show a
depletion of synaptic vesicles and a concomitant increase in
membrane-recycling intermediates. Mutant terminals also display a
specific mislocalization of the synaptic vesicle protein synaptotagmin.
These results suggest that the stoned proteins are essential for the
recycling of synaptic vesicle membrane and are required for the proper
sorting of synaptotagmin during endocytosis.
