The behavior of sympatric Chilean populations of Drosophila larvae during pupation
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
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 ...

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.

Corn Zein Nanocarriers for Agrochemical Delivery and Smart Packaging
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.

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 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
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
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 ...
