“…Both the core JAK-STAT pathway components and their in vivo roles have been widely conserved between vertebrates and invertebrate models such as Drosophila melanogaster. Misregulation of JAK-STAT pathway activity has also been identified as a key factor in the development of multiple human malignancies. …”

“…By mapping millions of restriction site–flanking reads back to the Escherichia coli and Drosophila melanogaster genomes we were able to quantitatively characterize the cognate and star site activity of EcoRI and MfeI and demonstrate genome-wide decreases in star activity with engineered high-fidelity variants EcoRI-HF and MfeI-HF, as well as quantify the influence on MfeI cleavage conferred by flanking nucleotides. …”

“…Here, we reported the identification of Par-1 as a regulator of the Hpo signaling pathway using a gain-of-function EP screen in Drosophila melanogaster. Overexpression of Par-1 elevated Yorkie activity, resulting in increased Hpo target gene expression and tissue overgrowth, while loss of Par-1 diminished Hpo target gene expression and reduced organ size. …”

“…The search is genome wide, with the restriction that only alignments that correspond to euchromatic regions, which consist of at least 10 Drosophila species, are being considered (59% of the euchromatic genome of Drosophila melanogaster). We find that long-range covariations are especially prevalent between exons of mRNAs as well as noncoding RNAs; the majority of the observed covariations appear as not reverse complementary, but as synchronized mutations, which could be due to interactions with common interaction partners or due to the involvement of genomic elements that are antisense of annotated transcripts. …”
