The neuromuscular junction - a model synapse

Methods

  1. Genetic engineering methods, including the generation of gene targeting vectors
  2. Direct gene transfer - Expression of transgenic proteins in single muscle fibers
  3. Biochemical and immunochemical methods
  4. Optical imaging of synaptic structures in intact muscle fibers using fluorescent marker molecules such as GFP or fluorescent antibodies or toxins
