We investigated population divergence in body melanisation in wild samples of Drosophila melanogaster across an elevational gradient (512-2202 m) in the Western Himalayas. Wild populations are characterized by higher phenotypic variability ...

In Drosophila, the role of telomerase is carried out by three specialized retrotransposable elements, HeT-A, TART and TAHRE. Telomeres contain long tandem head-to-tail arrays of these elements. Within each array, the three elements occur in...

Using an FLP/FRT-based method to create germline clones, we screened Drosophila chromosome arms 2L and 3R for new female meiotic mutants. The screen was designed to recover mutants with severe effects on meiotic exchange and/or segregation....

On August 1, 2006 the Howard Hughes Medical Institute's first stand-alone research campus opened at Janelia Farm, near Washington DC. Our mission at Janelia is to do exceptional fundamental research. Our two scientific foci are to understan...
An eGFP-based genetic screen for defects in light-triggered subcelluar translocation of the Drosophila photoreceptor channel TRPL [0.03%]
基于EGFP的遗传筛选用于发现调控果蝇视蛋白通道TRPL光触发型亚细胞转移缺陷的相关基因

Signaling at the plasma membrane is modulated by up- and downregulation of signaling proteins. A prominent example for this type of regulation is the Drosophila TRPL ion channel that changes its spatial distribution within the photoreceptor...

Genome and chromosome structure: Twelve dynamic and evolving genomes [0.03%]
基因组和染色体结构：十二种动态的和不断进化的基因组

Chromosomes are not inert structures that haul the genome through cell division. The dynamic properties of chromosomes, during the cell cycle, the lifetime of the organism and across evolutionary time, featured prominently at the 49(th) Ann...
A genomic response to the yeast transcription factor GAL4 in Drosophila [0.03%]
果蝇的基因组对酵母转录因子GAL4的响应

Yanling Liu
The yeast transcription factor GAL4 is widely used in Drosophila genetics to misexpress genes that are under control of the yeast upstream activator sequence (UAS). Here we show that high levels of GAL4 change the expression of many Drosoph...

Preparation of protein nuclear extracts is often the first step to study in vitro biological processes occurring in the nucleus of the eukaryotic cell. Nuclear extracts have been extensively used in different model organisms to identify and...

The diverse functional roles for RNA molecules in cells of the developing embryo have been an area of intense study in the last few years. Progress reported at the 49(th) Annual Drosophila Research Conference in San Diego, California highli...
