Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Animals lacking let-7 function (Df(2L)let-7-CKO1/Df(2L)let-7-CGKI animals carrying P{W8,let-7-CΔlet-7}) show a significant reduction in the volume of the mushroom body α/β lobes compared to wild type. The lobes may appear slim or underdeveloped, axonal projections may be misguided or the β lobes may be fused. These animals show a significant reduction in olfactory short-term memory compared to wild type.

Homozygous let-7Δ.cSa mutant flies show decreased locomotor activity and specific decrease in dopaminergic neurons.
