Journal ArticleDOI

The Sept4 Septin Locus Is Required for Sperm Terminal Differentiation in Mice

TL;DR: It is shown that Sept4 proteins play distinct but evolutionarily conserved functions in different cellular compartments, consistent with a role of the proapoptotic Sept4 protein ARTS in promoting caspase-mediated removal of cytoplasm via inhibition of XIAP.
Journal ArticleDOI

A transposable P vector that confers selectable G418 resistance to Drosophila larvae.

TL;DR: A vector for P‐mediated transformation is constructed which uses the finding that the neo gene transcribed from the herpes thymidine kinase promoter gives low levels of resistance but high levels can be obtained using the hsp70 heat‐shock promoter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of apoptosis in Drosophila

TL;DR: Reaper-family proteins are produced, which promote the auto-ubiquitination and degradation of Diap1, thereby removing the ‘brakes on death’ in cells that are doomed to die, indicating that the control of cell survival and death relies extensively on targeted degradation by the ubiquitin–proteasome pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

disconnected: A locus required for neuronal pathway formation in the visual system of drosophila

TL;DR: The different aspects of the phenotype suggest that the disconnected gene plays a role in neuronal cell recognition, and in a subset of other peripheral neurons in the thoracic and abdominal segments.
