The behavior of sympatric Chilean populations of Drosophila larvae during pupation

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 1998
The behavioral mechanisms by which the larvae of sympatric Chilean populations of Drosophila melanogaster, D. simulans, D. hydei and D. busckii select pupation sites are described in terms of larval substrate preferences.

FlyBase: establishing a Gene Group resource for Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res., 2015
Many publications describe sets of genes or gene products that share a common biology. For example, genome-wide studies and phylogenetic analyses identify genes related in sequence; high-throughput genetic and molecular screens reveal functionally ...

Biocatalytic Construction of a Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer Magnetic Resonance Imaging Nucleoside Probe: Synthesis and Evaluation of 5‐Methyl‐5,6‐Dihydrothymidine

open access: yesAdvanced Synthesis &Catalysis, EarlyView.
Al‐Hilfi et al. present a biocatalytic strategy for synthesizing 5‐methyl‐5,6‐dihydrothymidine (5‐MDHT), a sensitive MRI contrast agent. The study demonstrates that recombinant enzyme catalysis offers an efficient, sustainable, and eco‐friendly alternative to traditional chemical synthesis for producing clinically relevant imaging probes.

The Drosophila Genome Nexus: A Population Genomic Resource of 623 Drosophila melanogaster Genomes, Including 197 from a Single Ancestral Range Population

open access: yesGenetics, 2015
Hundreds of wild-derived Drosophila melanogaster genomes have been published, but rigorous comparisons across data sets are precluded by differences in alignment methodology.

Corn Zein Nanocarriers for Agrochemical Delivery and Smart Packaging

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
This review explores zein, a corn‐derived biodegradable protein, as a multifunctional nanocarrier for sustainable agriculture and packaging. It examines advances in agrochemical delivery, smart packaging, and stimuli‐responsive systems, while addressing scalability, environmental fate, and regulatory barriers.

Anticodon Engineered Transfer RNA (tRNASUAG) Inhibits Hepatitis B Virus Replication by Promoting the Degradation of Core Protein

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study employed tRNASUAG, an anticodon‐engineered tRNA (ACE‐tRNA), to introduce a phosphorylatable serine into the C‐terminal domain of HBc by reading through its stop codon, thereby potentially promoting the ubiquitin‐proteasome degradation of HBc, and subsequently inhibiting HBV replication. Through a tRNASUAG‐gHBV1‐tRNASUAG‐gHBV2‐tRNASUAG tandem

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.

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 ...

Modeling Control of Invasive Fire Ants by Gene Drive

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The fire ant Solenopsis invicta is characterized by exceptional invasive capabilities, rendering conventional control ineffective. Here, we explore the use of homing suppression gene drive in fire ants by developing a spatially explicit model. Overall, these results show that target population suppression requires an extended time scale, but that gene ...
