A multispecies approach for comparing sequence evolution of X-linked and autosomal sites in Drosophila [PDF]
Population genetics models show that, under certain conditions, the X chromosome is expected to be under more efficient selection than the autosomes.

Strategies for gene disruption in Drosophila [PDF]
Drosophila melanogaster has been a classic model organism for the studies of genetics. More than 15,000 Drosophila genes have been annotated since the entire genome was sequenced; however, many of them still lack functional characterization. Various gene-

Analysis of neural stem cell self-renewal and differentiation by transgenic RNAi in Drosophila [PDF]
The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, has proved to be a useful model organism for studying the biology of neural stem cells. Notably, significant progress has been made in identifying the molecular mechanisms that regulate the asymmetric cell ...

Phototransduction in Drosophila [PDF]
Phototransduction in Drosophila's microvillar photoreceptors is mediated by phospholipase C (PLC) resulting in activation of two distinct Ca(2+)-permeable channels, TRP and TRPL. Here we review recent evidence on the unresolved mechanism of their activation, including the hypothesis that the channels are mechanically activated by physical effects of ...

Ubiquitous selective constraints in the Drosophila genome revealed by a genome-wide interspecies comparison [PDF]
Non-coding DNA comprises ∼80% of the euchromatic portion of the Drosophila melanogaster genome. Non-coding sequences are known to contain functionally important elements controlling gene expression, but the proportion of sites that are selectively ...

Drosophila errantiviruses [PDF]
Retroelements with long-terminal repeats (LTRs) inhabit nearly all eukaryotic genomes. During the time of their rich evolutionary history they have developed highly diverse forms, ranging from ordinary retrotransposons to complex pathogenic retroviruses such as HIV-I.

The gustatory system influences "Drosophila" lifespan [PDF]
The lifespan of an organism is affected by the complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors. In C. elegans, this interaction between genes and environment is mediated by the sensory system.
