Comprehensive Biophysical Profiling Evidences Self‐Oligomerization of Bacterially Expressed Pc Protein

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
Polycomb (Pc), a core component of Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1), is largely intrinsically disordered yet forms buffer‐ and concentration‐dependent higher‐order assemblies. Integrative biophysical analysis and cryo‐electron microscopy reveal dynamic, heterogeneous oligomers, whereas AlphaFold modeling suggests that structural organization is ...

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 6, Page 1087-1101, June 2026.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

Temporal and Cell‐Specific Regulation of Synaptic Homeostasis by the Chromatin Remodeler Chd1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 33, 15 June 2026.
Chd1, the Drosophila homologue of mammalian CHD2 ‐ a gene linked to autism, epilepsy, and intellectual disability, is required for synaptic homeostatic plasticity. Chd1 in glia is necessary for the rapid induction of synaptic homeostasis, whereas Chd1 in motoneurons, muscle, and glia is critical for long‐term maintenance.

Embedded CRISPRi Enhances Gene‐Silencing Efficiency in Drosophila

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 31, 4 June 2026.
Current CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) technology in Drosophila has limited efficiency. This study introduces the emCRISPRi platform, which significantly enhances transcriptional silencing efficacy by embedding inhibitory domains within the dCas9 architecture.

Myeloid HDAC7 drives liver inflammation and systemic glucose dysregulation during diet‐induced obesity

open access: yesClinical &Translational Immunology, Volume 15, Issue 6, 2026.
This study explored the role of the class IIa histone deacetylase HDAC7 in hepatic inflammation and metabolic disease. Genetic approaches in mice revealed that myeloid HDAC7 drives hepatic inflammation and gene signatures associated with advanced chronic liver disease.

Evolutionary Patterns of the Genes Involved in the Integrity and Segregation of Chromosomes in Sawflies (Hymenoptera: Symphyta)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study identifies and characterizes the genes encoding cohesin and condensin complexes across Symphytan superfamilies, revealing their structural and functional roles with conserved motifs in maintaining genome stability. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that SMC genes originated from ancient duplication events, with notable gene loss (e.g., CAPG2 ...

Shifting Balancing Selection Underlies an Inversion Cline in Eurasian Blackcap

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We investigated what factor contributes to a cline of a chromosomal inversion of the Eurasian blackcap, which differs from typical inversion clines maintained by divergent selection. Using a simulation‐based machine learning approach, we found that the inversion is under negative frequency‐dependent selection, and the optimal frequency is shifted ...

Conditioning in Drosophila melanogaster

Animal Behaviour, 1967
Abstract Imagoes reared on a peppermint-scented food medium subsequently selected the peppermint-scented arm of an insect olfactometer more often than did controls reared on a non-scented medium. Further, confining peppermint-reared imagoes for 24 hr to peppermint-scented but foodless containers extinguished the conditioned acceptability of that ...

The Drosophila Melanogaster Genome

Annual Review of Genomics and Human Genetics, 2003
Drosophila's importance as a model organism made it an obvious choice to be among the first genomes sequenced, and the Release 1 sequence of the euchromatic portion of the genome was published in March 2000. This accomplishment demonstrated that a whole genome shotgun (WGS) strategy could produce a reliable metazoan genome sequence.
