Alpha-factor-directed synthesis and secretion of mature foreign proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

TL;DR: Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells were transformed with plasmids containing hybrid genes in which the sequence encoding mature human epidermal growth factor was joined to sequences encoding the leader region (preprosegment) of the precursor of the yeast mating pheromone alpha-factor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ethanol Intoxication in Drosophila: Genetic and Pharmacological Evidence for Regulation by the cAMP Signaling Pathway

TL;DR: Functional evidence is provided for the involvement of the cAMP signal transduction pathway in the behavioral response to intoxicating levels of ethanol in Drosophila.
Journal ArticleDOI

The TGFβ homolog dpp and the segment polarity gene hedgehog are required for propagation of a morphogenetic wave in the Drosophila retina

TL;DR: The results suggest that developing retinal cells drive the progression of morphogenesis utilizing the products of the hedgehog (hh) and decapentaplegic (dpp) genes.
