Altered mechanoreceptor response in Drosophila bang-sensitive mutants.

Journal of comparative physiology. A, Sensory, neural, and behavioral physiology - 1 Sept 1994

Engel J E, Wu C F

Abstract excerpt

Bang-sensitive mutants of Drosophila melanogaster (bas1, bssMW1, eas2, tko25t) display seizure followed by paralysis when subjected to mechanical shock. However, no physiological or biochemical defect has been found to be common to all of these mutants. In order to observe the effects of bang-sensitive mutations upon an identified neuron, and to study the nature of mechanically induced paralysis, we examined the...
