An Investigation Into Splicing Variation and Expression Patterns of Insulin-Like Peptide 4 (ILP4) Within the Drosophila Genus
… resistance. The insulin-like peptide 4 (ILP4) in Drosophila is an interesting subject for study due to its similarity to mammalian insulin and its role in regulating sugar metabolism. In this study, we investigate a novel splicing variation within the Drosophila takahashii Insulin-Like Peptide 4 …

Confocal Characterization of the Apical Testes and Ultrastructural Analysis of the Seminal Visicles of Drosophila pseudoobscura
<p>The Drosophila genus contains thousands of different species. Drosophila melanogaster is the most popular Drosophila species used in biological research. Drosophila pseudoobscura is the model Drosophila species used in our laboratory and is a distant relative to D. melanogaster. Both of these …

Evolutionary conservation of unistrand piRNA clusters and characterisation of the piRNA precursor export machinery in Drosophila
… and silence specific transposon families. The *Drosophila melanogaster* ovary contains two distinct types of piRNA clusters: unistrand and dual-strand clusters. While there is only one major unistrand cluster, dual-strand clusters are plentiful with more than 100 reported to be active. The major …
