Journal ArticleDOI
A protein related to p21-activated kinase (PAK) that is involved in neurogenesis in the Drosophila adult central nervous system.
Jörg Melzig,Karlheinz Rein,Ulrich Schäfer,Heiko Pfister,Herbert Jäckle,Martin Heisenberg,Thomas Raabe +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that mutations in mbt primarily interfere with the generation or survival of the intrinsic cells of the mushroom body, a paired neuropil structure in the adult brain involved in learning and memory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flight control during ?free yaw turns? inDrosophila melanogaster
TL;DR: A new model allows simulation of constant-bias torque traces by applying a single efficacy factor to no-b bias torque traces and Corresponding measurements using the torque compensator suggest an efficacy model to be applicable in characterizing torque traces with constant rotatory bias.
Journal ArticleDOI
The carrot, not the stick: appetitive rather than aversive gustatory stimuli support associative olfactory learning in individually assayed Drosophila larvae
Thomas Hendel,Birgit Michels,Kirsa Neuser,Angela Schipanski,Karla R. Kaun,Marla B. Sokolowski,Frank Marohn,René Michel,Martin Heisenberg,Bertram Gerber +9 more
TL;DR: This work investigates associative learning between odors and “tastants” in larval Drosophila melanogaster and results imply that the response-releasing, response-modulating and reinforcing functions of these tastants are dissociated on the behavioral level.
Journal ArticleDOI
The structural brain mutant Vacuolar medulla of Drosophila melanogaster with specific behavioral defects and cell degeneration in the adult.
TL;DR: The mutant Vam (Vacuolar medulla) has vacuoles in the distal medulla, caused by age-dependent cell degeneration in the lamina and the medulla and the role of lamina neurons in optomotor responses and fixation behavior is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular and genetic analysis of the Drosophila mas-1 (mannosidase-1) gene which encodes a glycoprotein processing alpha 1,2-mannosidase.
TL;DR: The molecular analysis of mas-1 (mannosidase-1), a Drosophila gene with significant homologies to mammalian and Saccharomyces cerevisiae glycoprotein processing alpha 1,2-mannOSidases, illustrates that the processing of N-linked glycans plays a functional role in Drosophile development.
