Abstract
Type II phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase (PI4KII) is thought to be associated with synaptic vesicles (SVs) and to be responsible for the majority of PI4K activity in the nervous system. However, the function of PI4KII at the synapse is unknown. We characterized the synaptic phenotypes of a Drosophila melanogaster PI4KII null mutant. We found increased nerve terminal growth in PI4KII null mutants indicating that PI4KII restrains nerve terminal growth. Evoked neurotransmitter release elicited in response to low frequency stimulation and spontaneous neurotransmitter release were not altered in PI4KII null mutants. However, PI4KII null mutants displayed reduced FM1-43 uptake in response to stimulation by high K+ saline, indicating impaired SV endocytosis. PI4KII null mutants did not display any defects in FM1-43 unloading, consistent with normal SV exocytosis. Thus, PI4KII is required for SV endocytosis but dispensable for SV exocytosis. Overall, our data show that PI4KII regulates both nerve terminal growth and SV recycling.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
