Genetic dissection of functional contributions of specific potassium channel subunits in habituation of an escape circuit in Drosophila.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 15 Mar 1998

Engel J E, Wu C F

Abstract excerpt

Potassium channels have been implicated in central roles in activity-dependent neural plasticity. The giant fiber escape pathway of Drosophila has been established as a model for analyzing habituation and its modification by memory mutations in an identified circuit. Several genes in Drosophila e...
