The DNA polymerases of Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Fly, 2020 DNA synthesis during replication or repair is a fundamental cellular process that is catalyzed by a set of evolutionary conserved polymerases. Despite a large body of research, the DNA polymerases of Drosophila melanogaster have not yet been systematically reviewed, leading to inconsistencies in their nomenclature, shortcomings in their functional ...

PLoS ONE, 2023 The C2H2 zinc finger gene cucoid establishes anterior-posterior (AP) polarity in the early embryo of culicine mosquitoes. This gene is unrelated to genes that establish embryo polarity in other fly species (Diptera), such as the homeobox gene bicoid ...

iMeta, Volume 1, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022 The diversity, composition, and network of gut microbiota differed between the sympatric and diet‐sharing Drosophila simulans and Dicranocephalus wallichii bowringi. Host species shape the bacterial and fungal community in two insect hosts by altering the relative contribution of community assembly processes.

Inferring Network Mechanisms: The Drosophila melanogaster Protein Interaction Network [PDF]
PNAS, Vol. 102, No. 9, pp. 3192-3197 (March 1, 2005), 2004 Naturally occurring networks exhibit quantitative features revealing underlying growth mechanisms. Numerous network mechanisms have recently been proposed to reproduce specific properties such as degree distributions or clustering coefficients.

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 43, Issue 1, Page 22-31, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is used extensively as a white pigment in the food industry, personal care, and a variety of products of everyday use. Although TiO2 has been categorized as a bioinert material, recent evidence has demonstrated different toxicity profiles of TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) and a potential health risk to humans.

Population genomics of the Wolbachia endosymbiont in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Richardson MF, Weinert LA, Welch JJ, Linheiro RS, Magwire MM, et
al. (2012) Population Genomics of the Wolbachia Endosymbiont in Drosophila
melanogaster. PLoS Genet 8(12): e1003129, 2012 Wolbachia are maternally-inherited symbiotic bacteria commonly found in arthropods, which are able to manipulate the reproduction of their host in order to maximise their transmission. Here we use whole genome resequencing data from 290 lines of Drosophila melanogaster from North America, Europe and Africa to predict Wolbachia infection status ...

Insects, 2023 Two taxonomically similar Drosophila species, Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila suzukii, are known to have distinct habitats: D. melanogaster is mostly found near overripe and fermented fruits, whereas D. suzukii is attracted to fresh fruits.

Contrasting patterns of transposable element insertions in Drosophila heat-shock promoters. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 The proximal promoter regions of heat-shock genes harbor a remarkable number of P transposable element (TE) insertions relative to both positive and negative control proximal promoter regions in natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster.

Journal of Biophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 We introduce a novel, low‐cost photoacoustic microscope, which is capable of listening to the laser light interactions with developing embryos of Parhyale hawaiensis emerging model organism. The presented label‐free imaging approach delineates the morphological features of the specimens with high resolution and contrast specificity, shedding light on ...
