Abstract excerpt
Genes encoding proteins involved in the function of the nervous system can be identified via mutations causing behavioral abnormalities. An example is ether à go-go (eag) in Drosophila melanogaster, which was identified originally as an X-linked mutation that displayed ether-induced leg-shaking b...
