Molecular analysis of core kinetochore composition and assembly in Drosophila melanogaster.
BackgroundKinetochores are large multiprotein complexes indispensable for proper chromosome segregation. Although Drosophila is a classical model organism for studies of chromosome segregation, little is known about the organization of its kinetochores ...

Drosophila muscleblind codes for proteins with one and two tandem zinc finger motifs. [PDF]
Muscleblind-like proteins, Muscleblind (Mbl) in Drosophila and MBNL1-3 in vertebrates, are regulators of alternative splicing. Human MBNL1 is a key factor in the etiology of myotonic dystrophy (DM), a muscle wasting disease caused by the occurrence of ...

Drosophila proteins related to vertebrate DNA (5-cytosine) methyltransferases.
DNA methylation at CpG residues is closely associated with a number of biological processes during vertebrate development. Unlike the vertebrates, however, several invertebrate species, including the Drosophila, do not have apparent DNA methylation in ...

Proteomic Characterization of Drosophila melanogaster Proboscis
Drosophila melanogaster flies use their proboscis to taste and distinguish edible compounds from toxic compounds. With their proboscis, flies can detect sex pheromones at a close distance or by contact. Most of the known proteins associated with probosci’

Complex polarity: building multicellular tissues through apical membrane traffic [PDF]
The formation of distinct subdomains of the cell surface is crucial for multicellular organism development. The most striking example of this is apical-basal polarization.

Organization and function of Drosophila odorant binding proteins
Odorant binding proteins (Obps) are remarkable in their number, diversity, and abundance, yet their role in olfactory coding remains unclear. They are widely believed to be required for transporting hydrophobic odorants through an aqueous lymph to ...

In vivo protein trapping in Drosophila [PDF]
The deciphering of complete genome sequences has opened a post-genomic proteomics era. While the sequence of many proteins is now known, attention will increasingly focus on the complex interaction networks that regulate their activity, and the analysis of protein distribution in the cell will be crucial to elucidating their function.

Nejire/dCBP-mediated control of H3 acetylation and transcriptional regulation by testis-specific Plus3 domain proteins during Drosophila spermatogenesis [PDF]
Spermatogenesis describes the development from germ line stem cells to highly specialized sperm. Drosophila melanogaster spermatogenesis is a good model system for chromatin remodelling processes as many of these processes are similar in mammals and in ...

Kramer et al. discovered that circularization of the Drosophila laccase2 gene is regulated by both intronic repeats and trans-acting splicing factors. Unlike the previously characterized Muscleblind (Mbl) circular RNA, which requires the Mbl protein for ...
