Abstract excerpt
Induction of membrane-associated responses, a leg-shaking, a knock-down and a killing, by gamma-ray irradiation was investigated in Shaker (Sh) mutants of Drosophila melanogaster in which the gene cords for the A-current K+ channel. Sh mutants were more sensitive in the knock-down response after gamma-ray irradiation than wild types. There were a great amount of sex difference in the knock-down response, males...
