Measurements of reacidification rate of newly endocytosed vesicles from single synaptic terminals.

Representative time courses of pHluorin signals of individual synaptic terminals in the absence (black) or presence (gray) of bafilomycin A1, a vacuolar H+-ATPase inhibitor. To measure reacidification rate of newly formed endocytic vesicles using synaptophysin-pHluorin (sypHy) as described by Atluri and Ryan, 2006, neurons infected with lentivirus encoding sypHy were rapidly perfused with a valve controlled pressurized local perfusion system (ALA Scientific, Farmingdale, NY). Surface fluorescence of pHluorin is quenched by the first application of acidic buffer (pH 5.5 buffer with the HEPES substituted with equi-molar MES) for 10 s to establish the baseline, and the quenched fluorescence is recovered by washing off the acidic solution. To isolate pHluorin signal from newly endocytosed synaptic vesicles, acidic buffer, indicated by the second bar in the trace, is applied for a 20 s duration 5 s right after the cessation of stimulation train. Newly endocytosed alkaline pool of pHluorin is detached from the plasma membrane and thus resistant to quenching by the applied acidic buffer, and the decay of this portion of fluorescence to the baseline represents acidification of newly endocytosed vesicles. The decay of fluorescent signals, which can be blocked by bafilomycin A1, thus likely reflects reacidification kinetics of newly endocytic vesicles. Reacidification rate of newly endocytosed vesicles is estimated by an exponential fit, as indicated by the red dashed line, of this fluorescent signal decay from the first to the last point during this 20 s duration of acidic buffer application.

No difference in release probability of RRP vesicles between wild-type (WT) and transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7) knockout (KO) neurons as measured from vGlut1-pHluorin experiments.

Release probability from individual terminals is calculated as the ratio of an averaged response induced by three single action potentials (APs) with 20 s intervals to RRP response induced by 40 APs at 20 Hz, which is delivered 60 s after the last single AP. To increase the liability of responses induced by single AP, experiments are carried out at 5 mM extracellular Ca2+ at room temperature. Unpaired two-tailed Student’s t-test.
