Journal ArticleDOI
A genome-wide transgenic RNAi library for conditional gene inactivation in Drosophila
Georg Dietzl,Doris Chen,Frank Schnorrer,Kuan-Chung Su,Yulia Barinova,Michaela Fellner,Michaela Fellner,Beate Gasser,Kaolin Kinsey,Kaolin Kinsey,Silvia Oppel,Silvia Oppel,Susanne Scheiblauer,Africa Couto,Vincent Marra,Krystyna Keleman,Krystyna Keleman,Barry J. Dickson,Barry J. Dickson +18 more
TL;DR: The generation and validation of a genome-wide library of Drosophila melanogaster RNAi transgenes, enabling the conditional inactivation of gene function in specific tissues of the intact organism and opening up the prospect of systematically analysing gene functions in any tissue and at any stage of the Drosophile lifespan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rac function and regulation during Drosophila development
Satoko Hakeda-Suzuki,Julian Ng,Julia Tzu,Georg Dietzl,Yan Sun,Matthew B. Harms,Tim Nardine,Liqun Luo,Barry J. Dickson +8 more
TL;DR: The three Drosophila Rac genes, Rac1, Rac2 and Mtl, have overlapping functions in the control of epithelial morphogenesis, myoblast fusion, and axon growth and guidance and are not required for the establishment of planar cell polarity, as had been suggested on the basis of studies using dominant mutant isoforms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rac GTPases control axon growth, guidance and branching
Julian Ng,Timothy Nardine,Matthew B. Harms,Julia Tzu,A. Goldstein,Yan Sun,Georg Dietzl,Barry J. Dickson,Liqun Luo +8 more
TL;DR: The central role of Rac GTPases in multiple aspects of axon development in vivo is demonstrated, and it is suggested that axon growth, guidance and branching could be controlled by differential activation of Rac signalling pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome-wide analysis of Notch signalling in Drosophila by transgenic RNAi
Jennifer L. Mummery-Widmer,Masakazu Yamazaki,Masakazu Yamazaki,Thomas Stoeger,Maria Novatchkova,Maria Novatchkova,Sheetal Bhalerao,Sheetal Bhalerao,Doris Chen,Georg Dietzl,Barry J. Dickson,Juergen A. Knoblich +11 more
TL;DR: The use of a library of Drosophila strains expressing inducible hairpin RNAi constructs to study the Notch signalling pathway during external sensory organ development is reported, showing that complex developmental processes can be analysed on a genome-wide level and provide a unique resource for functional annotation of the Drosophile genome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trio Combines with Dock to Regulate Pak Activity during Photoreceptor Axon Pathfinding in Drosophila
Timothy P. Newsome,Susanne Schmidt,Georg Dietzl,Krystyna Keleman,Bengt Åsling,Anne Debant,Barry J. Dickson +6 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that distinct signals transduced via Trio and Dock act combinatorially to activate Pak in spatially restricted domains within the growth cone, thereby controlling the direction of axon extension.
