The reduction in the L-type Ca2+ current seen in the muscles of third instar amnX8 mutant larvae is rescued by expression of amnhs.PM using heat shock.
Addition of amnhs.PM to amnX8 animals significantly rescues the perineurial glial thickness phenotype.
Heat shock induction in adults, such as is sufficient to rescue the ethanol sensitivity of amnX8, cannot rescue the memory defects. Two alternative heat shock regimes in the adult also fail to rescue the memory defects of amnX8.
