Background Insects constitute the vast majority of known species with their importance including biodiversity, agricultural, and human health concerns. It is likely that the successful adaptation of the Insecta clade depends on specific components in its proteome that give rise to specialized...

Improving the accuracy of protein secondary structure prediction using structural alignment
Download2006
Gallin, W.J., Wishart, D.S., Montgomerie, S., Sundararaj, S.
Background: The accuracy of protein secondary structure prediction has steadily improved over the past 30 years. Now many secondary structure prediction methods routinely achieve an accuracy (Q3) of about 75%. We believe this accuracy could be further improved by including structure (as opposed...

Myt1 kinase performs several functions during Drosophila development. Myt1 has firstly been described as a regulator of the G2/M DNA damage checkpoint in the developing wing disc. In addition, Myt1 has been shown to regulate several aspects of male and female gametogenesis, while also...

Investigating the Nuclear Roles of Iron Regulatory Protein-1A (IRP1A) in Drosophila melanogaster
DownloadFall 2023
Iron is an indispensable micronutrient for almost all organisms. Either the lack or excess of iron can result in various human diseases. Therefore, to maintain cellular iron homeostasis, the IRP/IRE (iron regulatory protein/iron responsive element) system tightly regulates iron concentrations....

The ppk20 (pickpocket 20) gene was identified from a two-step screen that was aimed at identifying genes relevant to Drosophila iron and heme homeostasis. Initially, our lab collaborated with two other labs and carried out a prothoracic gland (PG)-specific genome-wide screen of 12,500 RNA...

Intestinal epithelial damage and homeostatic cell shedding sends evolutionarily conserved growth signals to activate division programs in stem cells, which renews the epithelium to maintain barrier integrity. In addition to conserved growth and stress signaling, microbes and innate immune...

Mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I and 11 genes were sequenced for two invasive alien birch (Betula L. [Betulaceae]) leaf-mining sawflies, Profenusa thomsoni (Konow, 1886) (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae) and Scolioneura betuleti (King, 1816) (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae), accidentally introduced...
