The Drosophila melanogaster translational repressor pumilio regulates neuronal excitability.

Genetics - 1 Jul 2002

Schweers Brett A, Walters Karina J, Stern Michael

Abstract excerpt

Maintenance of proper neuronal excitability is vital to nervous system function and normal behavior. A subset of Drosophila mutants that exhibit altered behavior also exhibit defective motor neuron excitability, which can be monitored with electrophysiological methods. One such mutant is the P-element insertion mutant bemused (bem). The bem mutant exhibits female sterility, sluggishness, and increased motor...
