HN1 expression contributes to mitotic fidelity through Aurora A‐PLK1‐Eg5 axis

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
Abstract Hematological and neurological expressed 1 (HN1) is homolog of Jupiter protein from Drosophila melanogaster where it functions as a microtubule‐associated protein. However, in mammalian cells, HN1 is associated partially with y‐tubulin in centrosomes, Stathmin for stabilizing microtubules, and Cdh1 for regulating Cyclin B1 for cell cycle ...

Drosophila melanogaster: a fruitful model for oncohistones

open access: yesFly, 2021
Drosophila melanogaster has proven to be a powerful genetic model to study human disease. Approximately 75% of human disease-associated genes have homologs in the fruit fly and regulatory pathways are highly conserved in Drosophila compared to humans ...

The behavioral repertoire of Drosophila melanogaster in the presence of two predator species that differ in hunting mode.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, has proven to be an excellent model organism for genetic, genomic and neurobiological studies. However, relatively little is known about the natural history of D. melanogaster.

The number of neurons in Drosophila and mosquito brains.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Various insect species serve as valuable model systems for investigating the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which a brain controls sophisticated behaviors.

The Host as the Driver of the Microbiota in the Gut and External Environment of Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2015
Most associations between animals and their gut microbiota are dynamic, involving sustained transfer of food-associated microbial cells into the gut and shedding of microorganisms into the external environment with feces, but the interacting effects of ...

β‐Catenin localization in the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi suggests an ancestral role in cell adhesion and nuclear function

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The emergence of multicellularity in animals marks a pivotal evolutionary event, which was likely enabled by molecular innovations in the way cells adhere and communicate with one another. β‐Catenin is significant to this transition due to its dual role as both a structural component in the cadherin–catenin complex and as a ...

Modulatory effect of Picralima Nitida on oxidative stress: Cobalt, thiol, total protein in Drosophila melanogaster exposed to lead

open access: yesSokoto Journal of Medical Laboratory Science, 2023
Drosophila melanogaster, commonly known as fruit fly, vinegar fly, is a small model organism used in the study of various disciplines. D. biochemical, neurological and physiological sim ilarities with human beings and has about 75% functional homologs of

Calcium Imaging in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yes, 2019
Drosophila melanogaster, colloquially known as the fruit fly, is one of the most commonly used model organisms in scientific research. Although the final architecture of a fly and a human differs greatly, most of the fundamental biological mechanisms and pathways controlling development and survival are conserved through evolution between the two ...

The effects of recombination rate on the distribution and abundance of transposable elements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Transposable elements (TEs) often accumulate in regions of the genome with suppressed recombination. But it is unclear whether this pattern reflects a reduction in the efficacy of selection against deleterious insertions or a relaxation of ectopic ...

Effects of life history strategies and habitats on limb regeneration in plethodontid salamanders

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Salamanders are the only tetrapods that exhibit the ability to fully regenerate limbs. The axolotl, a neotenic salamander, has become the model organism for regeneration research. Great advances have been made providing a detailed understanding of the morphological and molecular processes involved in limb regeneration.
