(GENETICS SOC AM, 2009-09-03)The Drosophila melanogaster wing is a model system for analyzing the genetic control of organ size, shape, and pattern formation. The formation of the wing involves a variety of processes, such as cell growth, proliferation, ...
-
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2018)© 2018 Elsevier B.V.Insect metamorphosis has been a classic model to understand the role of hormones in growth and timing of developmental transitions. In addition to hormones, transitions in some species are regulated by ...
-
(Universisdad de Chile, 2017)La sefializacion Hedgehog (HH) es importante durante el desarrollo de invertebrados y vertebrados. Es altamente conservada entre especies y su grado de activacion dependerá de su disponibilidad en los tejidos competentes. ...
-
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2018)© 2018Thanks to the power of Drosophila genetics, this animal model has been a precious tool for scientists to uncover key processes associated to innate immunity. The fly immune system relies on a population of macrophage-like ...
-
(CELL PRESS, 2009-03-27)Adaptation to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress depends on the activation of an integrated signal transduction pathway known as the unfolded protein response (UPR). Bax inhibitor-1 (BI-1) is an evolutionarily conserved ...

BAX inhibitor-1 regulates autophagy by controlling the IRE1α branch of the unfolded protein response (2011)Both autophagy and apoptosis are tightly regulated processes playing a central role in tissue homeostasis. Bax inhibitor 1 (BI-1) is a highly conserved protein with a dual role in apoptosis and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) ...
-
(2013)The CSRNP (cystein-serine-rich nuclear protein) transcription factors are conserved from Drosophila to human. Functional studies in mice, through knockout for each of their paralogs, have resulted insufficient to elucidate ...
-
(WILEY-LISS, DIV JOHN WILEY & SONS INC, 2009-04-15)The CSRNP (cystein-serine-rich nuclear protein) family has been conserved from Drosophila to human. Although knockout mice for each of the mammalian proteins have been generated, their function during vertebrate development ...
-
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2008-11-28)Cell division rates and apoptosis sculpt the growing organs, and its regulation implements the developmental programmes that define organ size and shape. The balance between oncogenes and tumour suppressors modulate the ...
-
(Landes Bioscience, 2013)The TOR signaling pathway is crucial in the translation of nutritional inputs into the protein synthesis machinery regulation, allowing animal growth. We recently identified the Bud32 (yeast)/PRPK (human) ortholog in ...
-
(2014)Mammalian insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) cleaves insulin, among other peptidic substrates, but its function in insulin signaling is elusive. We use the Drosophila system to define the function of IDE in the regulation of ...
-
(2013)Cell growth and proliferation are pivotal for final organ and body size definition. p53-related protein kinase (Bud32/PRPK) has been identified as a protein involved in proliferation through its effects on transcription ...
-
(SHARED SCIENCE PUBLISHERS, 2016)The universal tRNA modification t(6)A is found at position 37 of nearly all tRNAs decoding ANN codons. The absence of t(6)A(37) leads to severe growth defects in baker's yeast, phenotypes similar to those caused by defects ...
-
(Amer Soc Biochemistry Molecular Biology, 2015)N-6-Threonylcarbamoyl-adenosine (t(6)A) is a universal modification occurring at position 37 in nearly all tRNAs that decode A-starting codons, including the eukaryotic initiator tRNA (tRNA(i)(Met)). Yeast lacking central ...
-
(Elsevier, 2019)Drosophila phototransduction occurs in light-sensitive microvilli arranged in a longitudinal structure of the photoreceptor, termed the rhabdomere. Rhodopsin (Rh), isomerized by light, couples to G-protein, which activates ...
-
(Universidad de Chile, 2015)Este trabajo tiene como objetivo estudiar las posibles funciones directivas de los tRNAs sobre procesos celulares y en especifico como una modificacion post-transcripcional presente en un sub-grupo de tRNA regula el ...
-
(Universidad de Chile, 2002)
-
(2019-04)El citoesqueleto es un componente esencial en todas las células. En particular, el citoesqueleto de Actina cumple múltiples funciones, desde el desarrollo de un organismo, la migración celular, hasta la formación de ...
-
(2017)Las enfermedades cardiovasculares son la primera causa de muerte en el mundo. Desregulaciones en el flujo autofágico y en la desdiferenciación de células musculares lisas vasculares (VSMC) se han asociado con diferentes ...
