Cover picture: The majority of F-actin stain,
localized to the frog motor nerve terminal, is external to synaptic
vesicle clusters. Top panel, Bands of F-actin stain
(red) separate the linear array of synaptic vesicle clusters
(green). Bottom panels, F-actin is coextensive with a
synaptic vesicle marker and is completely overlapping with
-fodrin.
A Z-series of confocal images was resampled along a specified line to
yield a longitudinal view of a synaptic site. Each column of three
images shows reconstructed line scans of a synaptic site stained in
green with either a synaptic vesicle marker
(left, center) or
-fodrin (right)
and in red with markers of either acetylcholine receptors
(left) or F-actin (center, right). Bottom panels represent overlays of images from the pairs of
stain. For details, see the article by Dunaevsky and Connor in this
issue (pages 6007-6012).
