One rescued line, EH536, was maintained and used for genetic crosses
involving unc - 9 (fc16).
Not exact matches
Therefore, part of the characterization of the
Unc - 7 phenotype
involves understanding how ectopic gap junction channels arise in the absence of the
UNC - 7 innexin, and whether or not these ectopic neuronal connections contribute to the
Unc phenotype.
However, partial EM reconstruction of an
unc - 7 (e5) mutant revealed ectopic gap junctions formed between AVA interneurons that direct backward movement and B class motor neurons
involved in forward movement.
