Optimal Neuromuscular Performance Requires Motor Neuron Phosphagen Kinases

Karlis Anthony Justs, Danielle V. Latner, Carlos D. Oliva, Yosuf Arab, Gabriel G. Bonassi, Olena Mahneva, Sarah Crill, Sergio Sempertegui, Paul A. Kirchman, Yaouen Fily, Gregory Talisker Macleod

This study shows that phosphagen systems in Drosophila motor neurons are critical for sustaining neurotransmitter release at high firing frequencies, not for ATP provision.
