Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila T(X,Y)V7 mutant is characterized by abnormally large motor responses that build up upon repetitive stimulation. Genetically it is characterized by a chromosomal breakpoint located at the proximal end of the Shaker gene complex. This mutation affects a gene which encodes a novel cal...
