Drosophila <scp>S2</scp> Cells Secrete Wingless on Exosome‐Like Vesicles but the Wingless Gradient Forms Independently of Exosomes
Wingless acts as a morphogen in Drosophila wing discs, where it specifies cell fates and controls growth several cell diameters away from its site of expression. Thus, despite b...
The <i>Drosophila 18 wheeler</i> is required for morphogenesis and has striking similarities to <i>Toll</i>
ABSTRACT We have isolated and characterized a novel gene, named 18 wheeler (18w) for its unique segmental expression pattern in Drosophila embryos and expression in cells that m...
TLR6: A novel member of an expanding Toll-like receptor family
Drosophila Toll protein is shown to activate the innate immune system in adult and regulate the dorsoventral patterning in the developing embryo. Recently, five human homologs o...
Molecular analysis of even-skipped mutants in Drosophila development.
The homeo box gene even-skipped (eve) plays a key role in the regulation of the Drosophila segmentation pattern. eve- embryos lack segment borders and show altered activities of...
Toll-Like Receptors
The innate immune system in drosophila and mammals senses the invasion of microorganisms using the family of Toll receptors, stimulation of which initiates a range of host defen...
