    Abstract Asymmetric transport of cargo across axonal branches is a field of active research. Mechanisms contributing to preferential cargo transport along specific branches in vivo in wild type neurons are poorly understood. We find that anterograde synaptic vesicles preferentially enter the synaptic branch or pause at the branch point in C. elegans PLM neurons. The synaptic vesicle anterograde kinesin motor UNC-104/KIF1A regulates this vesicle behaviour at the branch point. Reduced levels of functional UNC-104 cause vesicles to predominantly pause at the branch point and lose their preference for turning into the synaptic branch. SAM-4/Myrlysin, which aids in recruitment/activation of UNC-104 on synaptic vesicles, regulates vesicle behaviour at the branch point similar to UNC-104. Increasing the levels of UNC-104 increases the preference of vesicles to go straight towards the asynaptic end. This suggests that the neuron optimises UNC-104 levels on the cargo surface to maximise the fraction of vesicles entering the branch and minimise the fraction going to the asynaptic end.

    Abstract The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans utilizes gap junctions in different fashions in virtually all of its cells. This model animal has a surprisingly large number of innexin genes within its genome, and many nematode cell types can express multiple innexins at once, leading to the formation of diverse junction types and enough redundancy to limit the effect of single gene knockdowns on animal development or behavioral phenotypes. Here, we review the general properties of these junctions, their expression patterns, and their known roles in tissue development and in the animal's connectome. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

    Abstract A fundamental question in neurodevelopmental biology is how flexibly the nervous system changes during development. To address this, we reconstructed the chemical connectome of dauer, an alternative developmental stage of nematodes with distinct behavioral characteristics, by volumetric reconstruction and automated synapse detection using deep learning. With the basic architecture of the nervous system preserved, structural changes in neurons, large or small, were closely associated with connectivity changes, which in turn evoked dauer-specific behaviors such as nictation. Graph theoretical analyses revealed significant dauer-specific rewiring of sensory neuron connectivity and increased clustering within motor neurons in the dauer connectome. We suggest that the nervous system in the nematode has evolved to respond to harsh environments by developing a quantitatively and qualitatively differentiated connectome.

    Abstract Neurons rely on mitochondria for an efficient supply of ATP and other metabolites. However, while neurons are highly elongated, mitochondria are discrete and limited in number. Due to the slow rates of diffusion over long distances it follows that neurons would benefit from an ability to control the distribution of mitochondria to sites of high metabolic activity, such as synapses. It is assumed that neurons' possess this capacity, but ultrastructural data over substantial portions of a neuron's extent that would allow for tests of such hypotheses are scarce. Here, we mined the Caenorhabditis elegans electron micrographs of John White and Sydney Brenner and found systematic differences in average mitochondrial length (ranging from 1.3 to 2.4 μm), volume density (3.7% to 6.5%) and diameter (0.18 to 0.24 μm) between neurons of different neurotransmitter type and function, but found limited differences in mitochondrial morphometrics between axons and dendrites of the same neurons. Analyses of distance intervals found mitochondria to be distributed randomly with respect to presynaptic specializations, and an indication that mitochondria were displaced from postsynaptic specializations. Presynaptic specializations were primarily localized to varicosities, but mitochondria were no more likely to be found in synaptic varicosities than non-synaptic varicosities. Consistently, mitochondrial volume density was no greater in varicosities with synapses. Therefore, beyond the capacity to disperse mitochondria throughout their length, at least in C. elegans, fine caliber neurons manifest limited sub-cellular control of mitochondrial size and distribution.
