Homozygous adults are short lived (they all die by approximately 10 days after eclosion).
Mutant flies show increased resistance to the nAChRα6 agonist spinosad compared to wild-type controls.
Homozygotes cannot fly or jump, they can only walk slowly with an unstable gait, sometimes when standing still they exhibit body tremors. In most mutants the DLMs exhibit frequent bursting activity due to defects in the CNS.
