Quantification of food intake in Drosophila [PDF]
, 2009 Measurement of food intake in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster is often necessary for studies of behaviour, nutrition and drug administration. There is no reliable and agreed method for measuring food intake of flies in undisturbed, steady state ...

Protocol for Reconstituting Adaptor‐Mediated Activation of Full‐Length Kinesin‐1
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Kinesin‐1 is a member of the kinesin superfamily that plays an essential role in intracellular cargo transport. In the absence of cargo, Kinesin‐1 exhibits low motor activity due to autoinhibition. Multiple studies have demonstrated that adaptor proteins, which link cargos to Kinesin‐1, can activate Kinesin‐1 by releasing the autoinhibition ...

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...

Microtubule Destabilizing Kinesins: A Historical Perspective and Thoughts for the Future
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The microtubule cytoskeleton plays critical roles in multiple cellular processes such as mitotic spindle assembly and chromosome segregation. Cells contain a number of microtubule‐associated proteins that regulate microtubule dynamics both temporally and spatially in cells. The microtubule depolymerizing kinesins include members of the Kinesin‐

The influence of L-arginine on the self-medication behaviour of Drosophila Melanogaster larvae
, 2013 The theory of self-medication works on the premise that sick animals will change their diet to incorporate food substances that are not part of their usual diet, that will cure or alleviate the disease.

Drosophila male genitalia rotation depends on permissive remodeling of the posterior abdomen
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background One of the most characteristic morphogenetic processes in Drosophila is the 360° rotation of the male pupal genital disc. This movement is driven by the myosin Myo1D, whose expression in the genital disc is controlled by the Hox gene Abdominal‐B (Abd‐B).

Infection Dynamics and Immune Response in a Newly Described
mBio, 2015 Trypanosomatid parasites are significant causes of human disease and are ubiquitous in insects. Despite the importance of Drosophila melanogaster as a model of infection and immunity and a long awareness that trypanosomatid infection is common in the ...
