4504“…We addressed this issue by searching for cases of incorporation of host genes into the sequence of TEs and examined the systems-level properties of these genes using the Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Drosophila melanogaster genomes. We identified 51 cases where the evolutionary scenario was the incorporation of a host gene fragment into a TE consensus sequence, and we show that both the yeast and fly homologues of the incorporated protein sequences have central positions in the cellular networks. …”

4508“…In this study we explored several parameters of donor DNA structure during ZFN-mediated gene targeting in Drosophila melanogaster embryos, as follows. 1) We confirmed that HR outcomes are enhanced relative to the alternative nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) repair pathway in flies lacking DNA ligase IV. 2) The minimum amount of homology needed to support efficient HR in fly embryos is between 200 and 500 bp. 3) Conversion tracts are very broad in this system: donor sequences more than 3 kb from the ZFN-induced break are found in the HR products at approximately 50% of the frequency of a marker at the break. 4) Deletions carried by the donor DNA are readily incorporated at the target. 5) While linear double-stranded DNAs are not effective as donors, single-stranded oligonucleotides are. …”

We observed striking evidence of a conserved association between DNA methylation in fire ants and honey bees, and several active histone modifications, constitutive gene expression, and “broad” promoter architecture in D. melanogaster. …”

Loss of these genes results in accumulation of autophagosomes and a block of autolysosomal degradation during basal, starvation-induced, and developmental autophagy. …”
