Movement of newly synthesized membrane by fast transport along the axon of an identified aplysia neuron

Abstract: In order to ascertain the form in which newly synthesized membrane is moved by fast axonal transport, we examined the distribution of label along an axon of the identified giant serotoninergic neuron (GCN) in the cerebral ganglion of Aplysia californica. Membrane glycoproteins were labeled by intrasomatic injection of 3H-fucose, and segments of GCN's axon in the posterior lip nerve containing the transported organelles were examined at 1, 5, 15, and 24 hours by quantitative electron-microscopic autoradiography… Show more

“…With the same fixative, the serotonergic neuron GCN contains 90 nm compound electron-lucent vesicles, as previously described (Cleary and Schwartz, 1987). The identified histaminergic neuron C2 contains dense-cored vesicles with an average diameter of 100 nm in its cell body (Schwartz et al, 1986).…”
