A fundamental functional dichotomy occurs in activity patterns, with some neurons firing at a relatively constant "tonic" rate, while others fire in bursts, a "phasic" pattern. Synapses formed by tonic versus phasic neurons are also functionally differentiated, yet the bases of their distinctive properties remain enigmatic. A major challenge toward illuminating the synaptic differences between tonic and phasic neurons is the difficulty in isolating their physiological properties. At the Drosophila neuromuscular junction, most muscle fibers are coinnervated by two motor neurons: the tonic "MN-Ib" and phasic "MN-Is." Here, we used selective expression of a newly developed botulinum neurotoxin transgene to silence tonic or phasic motor neurons in Drosophila larvae of either sex. This approach highlighted major differences in their neurotransmitter release properties, including probability, short-term plasticity, and vesicle pools. Furthermore, Ca2+ imaging demonstrated ∼2-fold greater Ca2+ influx at phasic neuron release sites relative to tonic, along with an enhanced synaptic vesicle coupling. Finally, confocal and super-resolution imaging revealed that phasic neuron release sites are organized in a more compact arrangement, with enhanced stoichiometry of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels relative to other active zone scaffolds. These data suggest that distinctions in active zone nano-architecture and Ca2+ influx collaborate to differentially tune glutamate release at tonic versus phasic synaptic subtypes.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT "Tonic" and "phasic" neuronal subtypes, based on differential firing properties, are common across many nervous systems. Using a recently developed approach to selectively silence transmission from one of these two neurons, we reveal specialized synaptic functional and structural properties that distinguish these specialized neurons. This study provides important insights into how input-specific synaptic diversity is achieved, which could have implications for neurologic disorders that involve changes in synaptic function."xsd:string |
