Flies are significantly more sensitive to acrolein than wild-type flies.

abnormal leg shaking under ether anesthesia
Flutterunspecified, Sh6 has abnormal flight | dominant | heat sensitive phenotype
Flutterunspecified, Sh6 has abnormal locomotor behavior | dominant | heat sensitive phenotype
Flutterunspecified, Sh6 has mesothoracic leg phenotype
Fluunspecified Sh6 double heterozygotes hop and fly poorly compared to either single heterozygote at 29oC. Fluunspecified Sh6 double heterozygotes walk and climb normally when raised at 22oC up to seven days after eclosion. After this time there is a gradual loss of function of the mesothoracic legs, first noticeable in their lack of use for climbing. Paralysis of the legs is usually accompanied by formation of a black spot, resembling a wound reaction, at the region of the trochanter and the femoral coxal joint.
