The selectivity and specificity of autophagy in drosophila [PDF]
, 2012 Autophagy is a process of cellular self-degradation and is a major pathway for elimination of cytoplasmic material by the lysosomes. Autophagy is responsible for the degradation of damaged organelles and protein aggregates and therefore plays a ...

A common genetic target for environmental and heritable influences on aggressiveness in Drosophila [PDF]
, 2008 Environmental and genetic factors can modulate aggressiveness, but the biological mechanisms underlying their influence are largely unknown. Social experience with conspecifics suppresses aggressiveness in both vertebrate and invertebrate species ...

A role for kinesin heavy chain in controlling vesicle transport into dendrites in Drosophila. [PDF]
, 2011 The unique architecture of neurons requires the establishment and maintenance of polarity, which relies in part on microtubule-based transport to deliver essential cargo into dendrites.

Computer-Aided Automated Detection of Gene-Controlled Social Actions of Drosophila [PDF]
International Conference on Smart Cities at Cambridge 2018, 2019 Gene expression of social actions in Drosophilae has been attracting wide interest from biologists, medical scientists and psychologists. Gene-edited Drosophilae have been used as a test platform for experimental investigation. For example, Parkinson's genes can be embedded into a group of newly bred Drosophilae for research purpose.

Dimensionality-Reduction in the Drosophila Wing as Revealed by Landmark-Free Measure-ments of Phenotype [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Organismal phenotypes emerge from a complex set of genotypic interactions. While technological advances in sequencing provide a quantitative description of an organism's genotype, characterization of an organism's physical phenotype lags far behind. Here, we relate genotype to the complex and multi-dimensional phenotype of an anatomical structure using

Animal Cells and Systems, 2021 Sleep is a fundamental behavior in an animal’s life influenced by many internal and external factors, such as aging and diet. Critically, poor sleep quality places people at risk of serious medical conditions.

Identification of microtubule-associated proteins in the centrosome, spindle, and kinetochore of the early Drosophila embryo. [PDF]
, 1989 We have developed affinity chromatography methods for the isolation of microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) from soluble cytoplasmic extracts and have used them to analyze the cytoskeleton of the early Drosophila embryo.

mRNA active transport in oocyte-early embryo: 3D agent-based modeling [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Axes of polarity (and primary morphogenetic gradients) are established in the oocyte - early embryo through active transport and localization of maternal factors. It is the oocyte - syncytial embryo of Drosophila (D. melanogaster) that is a model object for studying the molecular machinery of such transport systems.
