BackgroundDownstream targets for a large number of RNA-binding proteins remain to be identified. The Drosophila master sex-switch protein Sex-lethal (SXL) is an RNA-binding protein that controls splicing, polyadenylation, or translation of certain mRNAs ...

fc177, a Minor dec-1 Proprotein, Is Necessary to Prevent Ectopic Aggregation of the Endochorion During Eggshell Assembly in Drosophila [PDF]
The Drosophila eggshell is a highly specialized extracellular matrix that forms between the oocyte and the surrounding epithelial follicle cells during late oogenesis.

Microneedle suction cup patches, prepared using bionic Drosophila tarsal claws, can effectively treat bacterial infectious stomatitis by rapidly and efficiently leveraging multiple effects, including antibacterial and anti‐inflammatory properties, promotion of vasodilation, and active mechanical contraction of the wound.

Drosophila photoreceptors and signaling mechanisms
Fly eyes have been a useful biological system in which fundamental principles of sensory signaling have been elucidated. The physiological optics of the fly compound eye, which was discovered in the Musca, Calliphora and Drosophila flies, has been widely

Genomic Analysis of Drosophila Neuronal Remodeling: A Role for the RNA-Binding Protein Boule as a Negative Regulator of Axon Pruning [PDF]
Drosophila mushroom body (MB) {gamma} neurons undergo axon pruning during metamorphosis through a process of localized degeneration of specific axon branches.

A family of peptidoglycan recognition proteins in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster.
Peptidoglycans from bacterial cell walls trigger immune responses in insects and mammals. A peptidoglycan recognition protein, PGRP, has been cloned from moths as well as vertebrates and has been shown to participate in peptidoglycan-mediated activation ...

In the tripartite‐species model, Drosophila larvae stimulate lactate production through excreting digestion enzymes. S. marcescens population senses a cue of lactate and tends to diverge into virulent and reduced virulence subclusters with remarkable heterogeneity to metabolize carbon metabolism and counter colonization resistance, giving a fitness ...

Using Drosophila to study mechanisms of hereditary hearing loss
Johnston's organ – the hearing organ of Drosophila – has a very different structure and morphology to that of the hearing organs of vertebrates. Nevertheless, it is becoming clear that vertebrate and invertebrate auditory organs share many physiological,

During the progression of CRC, MDM2, as an E3 ubiquitin ligase, promotes the degradation of the LLGL2 protein. Reduced expression of the LLGL2 protein leads to the loss of support for the CNOT1 protein, decreasing the degradation of THBS3 mRNA. The increased THBS3 further activates the PI3K‐Akt pathway, promoting the proliferation and metastasis of CRC.

Accumulation of toxic proteins in neurons has been linked with the onset of neurodegenerative diseases, which in many cases are characterized by altered neuronal function and synapse loss.
