Drosophila Nimrod proteins bind bacteria [PDF]

Open Life Sciences, 2013
Abstract Engulfment of foreign particles by phagocytes is initiated by the engagement of phagocytic receptors. We have previously reported that NimC1 is involved in the phagocytosis of bacteria in Drosophila melanogaster. We have identified a family of genes, the Nimrod gene superfamily, encoding characteristic NIM domain containing ...

Exploring Banana phytosterols (Beta-sitosterol) on tight junction protein (claudin) as anti-urolithiasis contributor in Drosophila: A phyto-lithomic approach

Informatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2022
Claudins are a class of transmembrane proteins in the family of tight junction (TJ) proteins. The disrupted functioning of claudins has been found to have a role in urolithiasis (Kidney stones).

Kank Is an EB1 Interacting Protein that Localises to Muscle-Tendon Attachment Sites in Drosophila [PDF]

, 2014
Little is known about how microtubules are regulated in different cell types during development. EB1 plays a central role in the regulation of microtubule plus ends.

DrosophilaSOCS Proteins [PDF]

Journal of Signal Transduction, 2011
The importance of signal transduction cascades such as the EGFR and JAK/STAT pathways for development and homeostasis is highlighted by the high levels of molecular conservation maintained between organisms as evolutionary diverged as fruit flies and humans. This conservation is also mirrored in many of the regulatory mechanisms that control the extent

The S-palmitoylome and DHHC-PAT interactome of Drosophila melanogaster S2R+ cells indicate a high degree of conservation to mammalian palmitoylomes.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Protein S-palmitoylation, the addition of a long-chain fatty acid to target proteins, is among the most frequent reversible protein modifications in Metazoa, affecting subcellular protein localization, trafficking and protein-protein interactions.

Drosophila Rbp6 is an orthologue of vertebrate Msi-1 and Msi-2, but does not function redundantly with dMsi to regulate germline stem cell behaviour. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The vertebrate RNA-binding proteins, Musashi-1 (Msi-1) and Musashi-2 (Msi-2) are expressed in multiple stem cell populations. A role for Musashi proteins in preventing stem cell differentiation has been suggested from genetic analysis of the Drosophila ...

Construction of an alpaca immune antibody library for the selection of nanobodies against Drosophila melanogaster proteins

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Introduction:Drosophila melanogaster is a model organism for studying developmental biology and human neural disorders. Nanobodies are the variable domains of the heavy chains of camelid heavy-chain antibodies (VHHs) with high affinity to their antigens ...

HP1B is a euchromatic Drosophila HP1 homolog with links to metabolism. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Heterochromatin Protein 1 (HP1) proteins are an important family of chromosomal proteins conserved among all major eukaryotic lineages. While HP1 proteins are best known for their role in heterochromatin, many HP1 proteins function in euchromatin as well.
