Genome-wide analysis of Sox genes in Drosophila melanogaster
نویسندگان
چکیده
Genes of the Sox family encode evolutionarily conserved HMG box containing transcription factors, which play key roles in various events of cell determination/differentiation during development. The total number of Sox genes in Drosophila melanogaster was estimated to be eight, after classical molecular cloning approaches and exhaustive screening of the complete Drosophila genome. Here we report the embryonic and larval expression pattern of four previously uncharacterized Sox genes, through antibody staining and in situ hybridization experiments.

Background: In this study, the toxicity of the different xenobiotics was tested on the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster model system. Methods: Fly larvae were raised on food supplemented with xenobioticsat different concentrations (sodium nitroprusside (0.1-1.5 mM), S-nitrosoglutathione (0.5-4 mM), and potassium ferrocyanide (1 mM)). Emergence of flies, food intake by larvae, and pupation h...

Introduction: Pain research using animal models is related to ethical concerns, so invertebrates and insects have been recommended by researchers. In the present study, the nociceptive and antinociceptive effects of capsaicin, aspirin, morphine and chili extract were examined using fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) as an alternative for rodent pain model. Methods: Stage 3 of larvae and ad...
متن کاملTransposable Element ‘roo’ Attaches to Nuclear Matrix of the Drosophila melanogaster
The genome of eukaryotes is organized into structural units of chromatin loops. This higher order organization is supported by a nuclear skeleton called the nuclear matrix. The genomic DNA associated with the nuclear matrix is called the matrix associated region (MAR). Only a few genome-wide screens have been attempted, although many studies have characterized locusspecific MAR DNA sequences. I...
