Abstract excerpt
1. For a genetical approach to the molecular mechanisms of general anesthesia, we isolated 14 Drosophila transposon tagging mutants which showed altered sensitivities to diethylether anesthesia. Two mutated genes were identified and analyzed for their structures and functions. 2. One sensitive mutant, para(hd838), has a transposon, P-element, insertion in the 2nd intron of para locus (14C) which encodes an alpha...
