概括

减少双胞胎的无眼无翼或镜子将果的眼转化为复合眼睛,头皮变成天线. 这通过一种新的调节途径发生,而不仅仅是通过Decapentaplegic信号.

科学领域:

发育生物学是发展生物学.
遗传学遗传学是一个
果 (Drosophila melanogaster) 的研究研究

背景情况:

果的眼睛-天线盘通过精确的转录因子和信号通路相互作用来分化成成年头部结构.
像刺 (Hh),十足 (Dpp) 和无翼 (Wg) 这样的关键信号通路模拟不同的区域,包括复合眼,眼和天线.

研究的目的:

研究Pax6转录因子Twin of Eyeless (Toy) 与Wingless (Wg) 或Mirror (Mirr) 结合在果头部发育中的作用.
阐明Drosophila melanogaster中器官命运转变背后的调节机制.

主要方法:

双胞胎无眼 (Toy) 转录因子的组合降低.
操纵无翼 (Wg) 信号通路活动.
对镜像 (Mirr) 转录因子水平的分析.
对子宫外器官形成和基因表达模式 (例如,DPP) 的观察性研究.

主要成果:

同时减少Toy和Wg或Mirr,触发了眼球的转化为复合眼睛.
在这些条件下,邻近的头部表皮转化为天线.
异位性十足 (Dpp) 表达伴随着这些命运变化,但仅仅增加Dpp并不能复制转变.

结论:

玩具,Wg和镜子之间的相互作用对于指定ocelli和头部表皮的命运至关重要.
器官转化通过一种独特的调节途径发生,这种途径不仅仅依赖于Decapentaplegic (Dpp) 信号.
这项研究揭示了对Drosophila发育模式的组合控制的新见解.

The Ratio of X Chromosome to Autosomes

The Ratio of X Chromosome to Autosomes

In most organisms, sex is determined by the ratio of X and Y chromosomes. However, in some organisms, such as Drosophila and C.elegans, sex is determined by the ratio of the number of X chromosomes to the number of sets of autosomes. The Y chromosome in Drosophila is active but does not determine sex. It contains genes responsible for the production of sperms in adult flies.
Normal male Drosophila has a ratio of one X chromosome to two sets of autosomes. In contrast, normal female...

Determination

Determination

During embryogenesis, cells become progressively committed to different fates through a two-step process: specification followed by determination. Specification is demonstrated by removing a segment of an early embryo, “neutrally” culturing the tissue in vitro—for example, in a petri dish with simple medium—and then observing the derivatives. If the cultured region gives rise to cell types that it would normally generate in the embryo, this means that it is specified. In...

Position-effect Variegation

Position-effect Variegation

In 1928, a German botanist Emil Heitz observed the moss nuclei with a DNA binding dye. He observed that while some chromatin regions decondense and spread out in the interphase nucleus, others do not. He termed them euchromatin and heterochromatin, respectively. He proposed that the heterochromatin regions reflect a functionally inactive state of the genome. It was later confirmed that heterochromatin is transcriptionally repressed, and euchromatin is transcriptionally active chromatin.
