physiological function |
targeted reduction of ELP3 specifically in the developing Drosophila nervous system leads to a hyperactive phenotype with increase in climbing and locomotor activities and sleep loss in the adult flies, a significant expansion in synaptic bouton number and axonal length and branching in the larval neuromuscular junction as well as the misregulation of genes involved in sleep, vesicle transport and fusion, and protein chaperone activity. Ubiquitous reduction of ELP3 results in lethality |
