Bcl-2 Function in Drosophila
… not show a requirement for cytochrome c during apoptosis, but both model systems express pro- and anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members. Drosophila encodes two Bcl-2 family members, Debcl (pro-apoptotic) and Buffy (anti-apoptotic). To understand the role of Debcl in Drosophila apoptosis, we …

Discovery of a Novel Signaling Circuit Coordinating Drosophila Metabolic Status and Apoptosis
<p>Apoptosis is a conserved mode of cell death executed by a group of proteases named caspases, which collectively ensure tissue homeostasis in multicellular organisms by triggering a program of cellular "suicide" in response to developmental cues or cellular damage. </p><p>Accumulating evidence …

Genetics of Stress-Induced Responses in Drosophila
Apoptosis is a highly conserved process responsible for elimination of cells during normal development and after cellular damage. Apical caspases that initiate caspase cascades are stimulated upon interaction with adaptor molecules. The Drosophila adaptor protein Dark, a homolog of nematode Ced-4 …
