Drosophila protein tyrosine phosphatases
Seminars in Cell Biology, 1993Seven protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) genes have been identified in the fruit-fly Drosophila melanogaster. Four of these genes encode receptor-linked PTPases (R-PTPs) that are expressed on central nervous system axons in the embryo. Each axonal R-PTP has an extracellular domain that is homologous to vertebrate adhesion molecules and to identified

Odorant reception in insects: roles of receptors, binding proteins, and degrading enzymes.
Annual Review of Entomology, 2013Our knowledge of the molecular basis of odorant reception in insects has grown exponentially over the past decade. Odorant receptors (ORs) from moths, fruit flies, mosquitoes, and the honey bees have been deorphanized, odorant-degrading enzymes (ODEs ...

Chromosomal proteins in the spermatogenesis of Drosophila
Chromosoma, 2003Chromatin constitution in the male germ line of Drosophila is discussed with respect to the substitution of somatic histones by protamines or other basic proteins. The specific properties of germ line chromatin include the initiation and completion of the spermatogenic pathway and the reprogramming of the genome for embryonic development.

Drosophila Krüppel protein is a transcriptional represser
Nature, 1990Krüppel (Kr), one of the zygotically active Drosophila segmentation genes, is expressed in a restricted domain during the blastoderm stage of embryogenesis and is involved in the control of development of the thoracic and abdominal segments of the fly.

Corepressor Proteins in Drosophila Development
2001This review focuses on transcriptional corepressors in the early embryo of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, but also considers their roles in other developmental contexts, as well as related proteins in other organisms.

Protein Expression in Drosophila Schneider Cells
Analytical Biochemistry, 2000We expressed recombinant secreted, membrane, and cytosolic proteins in stably transfected Drosophila Schneider (SL-3) cells. To allow easy cloning of N- and C-terminal fusion proteins containing epitope- and His-tags for the detection of recombinant proteins and purification by affinity chromatography we constructed new expression vectors. To exemplify

Protein Evolution in the Context of Drosophila Development
Journal of Molecular Evolution, 2005The tempo at which a protein evolves depends not only on the rate at which mutations arise but also on the selective effects that those mutations have at the organismal level. It is intuitive that proteins functioning during different stages of development may be predisposed to having mutations of different selective effects.

Scaffolding Proteins at the Drosophila Neuromuscular Junction
2006Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the genetic approaches that have been used at the Drosophila neuromuscular junction (NMJ) to elucidate the in vivo significance of scaffolding proteins for synaptic structure and function. Scaffolding molecules are commonly found in association with the cytoplasmic face of membrane specializations such as ...

Evolution of protein-coding genes in Drosophila [PDF]
Several contributing factors have been implicated in evolutionary rate heterogeneity among proteins, but their evolutionary mechanisms remain poorly characterized. The recently sequenced 12 Drosophila genomes provide a unique opportunity to shed light on these unresolved issues.
