Individual flies have idiosyncratic preferences that shift over their lifetime in a way that depends on genotype and may be adaptive to rapidly changing environmental pressures.
The Mettl5/Trmt112 complex alters rRNA methylation, increasing PERIOD protein linking ribosome function, clock genes, and proteasome in sleep regulation in Drosophila.
Researchers at the Technion have discovered how changes in genetic regulatory sequences can lead to alterations in the form and structure of animals—even when genetic regulatory systems are stable and ...
Biologists have long puzzled over why organisms with similar numbers of protein-coding genes can differ so dramatically in ...
