The balanced segregation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis is essential for fertility and is mediated by crossovers (COs). A strong reduction of CO number leads to the unpairing of homologous chromosomes after the withdrawal of the s...

Genes that have been identified in the genome but remain uncharacterized with regards to function offer an opportunity to uncover novel biological information. Novelty is exciting but can also be a barrier. If nothing is known, how does one...

The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster serves as a powerful model organism for advancing our understanding of biological processes, not just by studying its similarities with other organisms including ourselves but also by investigating its ...
E2F1, DIAP1, and the presence of a homologous chromosome promote while JNK inhibits radiation-induced loss of heterozygosity in Drosophila melanogaster [0.03%]
E2F1、DIAP1以及同源染色体的存在能够促进而JNK抑制果蝇的放射诱导异ozygosity(LOH)现象

Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) can occur when a heterozygous mutant cell loses the remaining wild-type allele to become a homozygous mutant. LOH can have physiological consequences if, for example, the affected gene encodes a tumor suppressor...

According to the prevailing view, the trap model, the activity of invading transposable elements (TEs) is greatly reduced when a TE copy jumps into a piRNA cluster, which triggers the emergence of piRNAs that silence the TE. One crucial com...
