| Annotation description: | "we analyzed the recruitment of two endogenous endosome markers, Rab5 and EEA1, towards GFP-2x-FYVE puncta. Here, we analyzed the fraction of GFP-2x-FYVE/Rab5 double positive puncta as a measure for early endocytic vesicles, and the fraction of GFP-2x-FYVE/Rab5/EEA1 triple positive puncta as a measure for early endosomes (Figure 5A). For technical reasons this analysis was performed along axons without an additional co-staining for synapses. Of note, co-localization studies with Synaptophysin demonstrated that at least 65% of GFP-2x-FYVE positive puncta along axons were synaptic (Figure 4, figure supplement 2D and E), a concept previously reported at the Drosophila NMJ (Wucherpfennig et al., 2003). Therefore our analysis represents a mixture of PI3P-positive organelles in- and outside synapses." Here, GFP-2x-FYVE was used as a reporter for PI3P. |
