RNA polymerase II-mediated rDNA transcription mediates rDNA copy number expansion in Drosophila. by George J Watase, Yukiko M Yamashita

“…Akin to telomere maintenance, rDNA maintenance is particularly important in cell types that proliferate for an extended time period, most notably in the germline that passes the genome through generations. In Drosophila, the process of rDNA CN recovery, known as 'rDNA magnification', has been studied extensively. rDNA magnification is mediated by unequal sister chromatid exchange (USCE), which generates a sister chromatid that gains the rDNA CN by stealing copies from its sister. …”

Hsp104 suppresses polyglutamine-induced degeneration post onset in a drosophila MJD/SCA3 model. by Mimi Cushman-Nick, Nancy M Bonini, James Shorter

“…Here, we augment the proteostasis network of Drosophila SCA3 models with Hsp104, a powerful protein disaggregase from yeast, which is bafflingly absent from metazoa. …”

Glycogen homeostasis and mitochondrial DNA expression require motor neuron to muscle TGF-β/Activin signaling in Drosophila by Heidi Bretscher, Michael B. O’Connor

“…We show that motoneuron to muscle signaling by the TGFβ/Activin family member Actβ positively regulates glycogen levels during Drosophila development. Remarkably, we find that levels of stored glycogen are unaffected by altering cytoplasmic glucose catabolism. …”
