Modeling the INSC M70R variant in Drosophila caused proprioceptive defects and gait defects resembling those in CMT2 patients.

Quoted textsource-backed
Modeling the INSCM70R variant in Drosophila, we showed that it caused proprioceptive defects in adult flies, leading to gait defects resembling those in CMT2 patients.
