Molecular characterization of eag: a gene affecting potassium channels in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 Mar 1991

Drysdale R, Warmke J, Kreber R, Ganetzky B

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 behavior. Electrophysiological and genetic evidence suggests that the product of the eag locus is intimately involved in...
