Dysfunction of Drosophila mitochondrial carrier homolog (Mtch) alters apoptosis and disturbs development

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 276-289, February 2024.
Mitochondrial carrier homologs 1 (MTCH1) and 2 (MTCH2) are outer mitochondrial membrane translocases related to inner membrane carriers. In humans, MTCH1 interacts with presenilin 1 and induces apoptosis upon overexpression. We show here that the Drosophila ortholog is required for development, inducing apoptosis upon its downregulation both in the ...

Evolution of the sugar receptors in insects

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009
Background Perception of sugars is an invaluable ability for insects which often derive quickly accessible energy from these molecules. A distinctive subfamily of eight proteins within the gustatory receptor (Gr) family has been identified as sugar ...

Global patterns of sequence evolution in Drosophila

BMC Genomics, 2007
Background Sequencing of the genomes of several Drosophila allows for the first precise analyses of how global sequence patterns change among multiple, closely related animal species.

Dynamic turnover of centromeres drives karyotype evolution in Drosophila

eLife, 2019
Centromeres are the basic unit for chromosome inheritance, but their evolutionary dynamics is poorly understood. We generate high-quality reference genomes for multiple Drosophila obscura group species to reconstruct karyotype evolution.

Aspectos del polimorfismo genético en Drosophila pseudoobscura, D. willistoni y D. nebulosa Aspects of genetic polymorphism in Drosophila pseudoobscura, D. willistoni and D. nebulosa

Acta Agronómica, 2008
En México el polimorfismo cromosómico en poblaciones naturales de Drosophila se estudió en D. pseudoobscura, D. willistoni y D. nebulosa. En la primera, más ampliamente analizada, se reconocen 27 inversiones correspondientes al 67.5% de la variabilidad ...
