181561 Q9U3P2 SYG2_CAEEL Synaptogenesis protein syg-2 (Synaptogenesis abnormal protein 2) DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE Animals are viable, fertile, egg-laying proficient and coordinated. Abnormal synaptic vesicle clustering in the HSNL motor neuron from larval stage L3 through to adulthood. Reduced accumulation of synaptic vesicle proteins snb-1 and cat-1 in HSNL motor neuron. Defective synapse specificity due to altered distribution of synapses. syg-1 is mis-localized and diffusely distributed on the axon of the HSNL neuron. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15035988}.
