Abstract
A null mutation for the Sod2 gene, Sod2n283, was obtained in Drosophila melanogaster. Homozygous Sod2 null (Sodn283/Sodn283) adult flies survive up to 24 hr following eclosion, a phenotype reminiscent of mice, where Sod2-/progeny suffer neonatal lethality. Sodn283/+ heterozygotes are sensitive to oxidative stress induced by paraquat treatment.
