During development, neural competence is conferred and maintained by integrating spatial and temporal regulations. The Drosophila sensory bristles that detect mechanical and chemical stimulations are arranged in stereotypical positions. [...]
Proneural proteins Achaete and Scute associate with nuclear actin to promote formation of external sensory organs.
Webmaster2026-10-22T12:40:31+08:00Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) proneural proteins promote neurogenesis through transcriptional regulation. Although much is known about the tissue-specific regulation of proneural gene expression, how proneural proteins [...]
Smurf-mediated differential proteolysis generates dynamic BMP signaling in germline stem cells during Drosophila testis development
Webmaster2026-10-22T12:40:32+08:00Germline stem cells (GSCs) produce gametes throughout the reproductive life of many animals, and intensive studies have revealed critical roles of BMP signaling [...]
