Just as sticky as Casey Bergman's at the bird.
For now, tooting PubMed papers plus bioRxiv and arXiv preprints with Drosophila in title or abstract (first few lines of abstract only in the case of pubmed)

If you want your favourite #keyword recognised from the title or abstract, suggest it at https://gitlab.com/jocelyn_etienne/keywords-for-flypapers-on-mastodon/-/blob/main/tag-drosophila.txt

@Rxiv_cytoskeleton will disappear, but long live @Rxiv_cytoskeleton ! (me!)

The server @botsin.space is closing down. Thanks @muffinista for having maintained it for so long.

I (= @jocelyn_etienne ) am moving the bots from there to their new home, @biologists.social. Thanks to @Co_Biologists for offering this space !

Report to @jocelyn_etienne any issue in the coming days.

Bots @mechanobio and @flypapers will follow same move.

Transcriptome-wide identification and characterization of Toll pathway genes in Riptortus pedestris (Hemiptera: Alydidae) - PubMed

The Toll pathway was first identified in Drosophila and plays an essential role in defense against infection by various pathogens. To date, various noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been demonstrated to maintain immune homeostasis by regulating several target genes in the insect Toll pathway. However, th …

Studying Mitotic Phosphorylation in Drosophila - PubMed

Mitosis is largely controlled by the reversible phosphorylation of effector proteins. The addition or removal of phosphate groups alters the activities of these proteins, resulting in changes in chromosome structure, cytoskeletal dynamics, nuclear envelope integrity, and other transformations that m …

A Transgenic Method to Measure Mitotic Exit in Drosophila Embryos - PubMed

Mitotic exit is a necessary step for highly specialized cells to terminally differentiate and acquire unique functions. The FUCCI system can be used to visualize mitotic and post-mitotic cells during development and regeneration in both live organisms and fixed tissues. Here we describe a Fly-FUCCI …

Activation of glycolysis alleviates mitochondrial impairments caused by social isolation in Drosophila - PubMed

Social isolation (SI) in humans can lead to various psychological and physical abnormalities. However, the molecular mechanisms and potential drug treatments for this illness are not well understood. Drosophila, a social organism, exhibits distinct behavioral defects under SI conditions, such as red …

Cis-regulatory Variation in Relation to Sex and Sexual Dimorphism in Drosophila melanogaster - PubMed

Much of sexual dimorphism is likely due to sex-biased gene expression, which results from differential regulation of a genome that is largely shared between males and females. Here, we use allele-specific expression to explore cis-regulatory variation in Drosophila melanogaster in relation to sex. W …

Unique and Common Agonists Activate the Insect Juvenile Hormone Receptor and the Human AHR - PubMed

Transcription factors of the bHLH-PAS family play vital roles in animal development, physiology, and disease. Two members of the family require binding of low-molecular weight ligands for their activity: the vertebrate aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) and the insect juvenile hormone receptor (JHR). I …
