Abstract excerpt
An anatomical and electrophysiological study of Drosophila mutants has been made to determine the effect of altered electrical activity on the development and maintenance of larval neuromuscular junctions. We examined motor axon terminals of (1) hyperexcitable mutants Shaker (Sh), ether a go-go (...
