A combination of methods, including a new method for tagging genes, demonstrates that the chemosensory co-receptors of Drosophila melanogaster (Orco, IR8a, IR25a, IR76b) are expressed widely and ...

Fruit flies, known for their love of fruits, have another passion—riding a carousel. Research by scientists in the fields of ...

2020). These findings approved that Atgs are involved in the formation of autolysosomal networks, regulation of autophagic flux, and the fusion of autophagosomes with lysosomes, highlighting their ...

This useful study presents findings on the developmental roles of Nup107, a key nucleoporin, in regulating the larval-to-pupal transition in Drosophila melanogaster through its involvement in ecdysone ...

Fruit flies, known for their love of fruit, have another surprising interest: riding on a carousel. Research by scientists in ...

Transposons, also known as jumping genes or mobile genetic elements as they can replicate and reinsert themselves in the ...

They found that fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) voluntarily and repeatedly visited a carousel. In a recent study, scientists at Leipzig University have for the first time demonstrated play ...

They found that fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) voluntarily and repeatedly visited a carousel. "Until now, play-like behavior has mainly been described in vertebrates," says Professor Wolf ...

Using two species of flies from different climates -- one from the cool, high-altitude forests of Northern California, the other hailing from the hot, dry deserts of the Southwest -- scientists ...

Colgan High School senior Rania Lateef has landed a spot as a top 40 finalist in the 2025 Regeneron Science Talent Search ...

The study, published in Cell today, reveals how the retrotransposon copia completes its replication cycle and travels into the nucleus through the nuclear pores. The study is a collaboration between ...

The fruit flies will be used to assess how space travel affects living organisms and what kind of biological changes and stresses they go through during the flight.
