Metabolic and behavioral effects of neurofibromin result from differential recruitment of MAPK and mTOR signaling

Valentina Botero, Jenifer Barrios, Anneke Knauss, Greta Dahlen, Ethan Rosendahl, Kenneth J. Colodner, Seth M. Tomchik

This study investigates how neurofibromin mutations affect metabolic and behavioral traits in Drosophila by analyzing the roles of MEK and Akt/mTOR signaling pathways.

Neurofibromin deficiency alters the patterning and prioritization of motor behaviors in a state-dependent manner

Genesis Omana Suarez, Divya Sthanu Kumar, Hannah Brunner, Anneke Knauss, Jenifer Barrios, Jalen Emel, Jensen Teel, Valentina Botero, Connor N. Broyles, Aaron Stahl, Salil S. Bidaye, Seth M. Tomchik

This study shows that reduced Nf1 expression in Drosophila alters motor behavior patterns and prioritization, but not motor coordination, in a state-dependent manner.
