In avian species, a gene induces programmed cell death during development in the area where a phallus would otherwise grow.
Scientists discover gene behind an inherited muscle disorder by studying zebrafish embryos.
In the fruit fly, the ability of neural stem cells to make the full repertoire of neurons is regulated by the movement of key genes to the nuclear periphery.
Researchers track DNA modifications and gene expression in stem cells as they differentiate.
As telomeres shorten with age, genes as far as 1,000 kilobases away could be affected, including one responsible for an inherited muscle disease.
Satellites of the Golgi apparatus generate the microtubules used to grow outer dendrite branches in Drosophila neurons.
Microarrays help keep induced pluripotent stem cell lines in check, from start to finish.
Flies turning blue help researchers link the deterioration of the intestinal barrier to age-related death.
Drosophila insulin-like peptides (dILPs) regulate part of the signaling pathway that helps keep organs growing in proportion during development.
