Reductions in ATPase activity, actin sliding velocity, and myofibril stability yield muscle dysfunction in Drosophila models of myosin-based Freeman–Sheldon syndrome

Using Drosophila melanogaster, we created the first animal models for myosin-based Freeman–Sheldon syndrome (FSS), a dominant form of distal arthrogryposis defined by congenital facial and distal skeletal muscle contractures. Electron microscopy of homozygous mutant indirect flight muscles showed no...
