Apical extracellular matrix regulates fold morphogenesis in the Drosophila wing disc

Jana F. Fuhrmann, Vincenzo Maria Schimmenti, Greta Cwikla, Sangwon Lee, Michaela Yuan, Michaela Wilsch‐Bräuninger, Frank Jülicher, Marko A. Popovic, Natalie A. Dye

This study investigates how the apical extracellular matrix (aECM) regulates fold morphogenesis in the Drosophila wing disc, showing its role in stabilizing tissue folding and shaping the adult wing.

The splicing regulator Prp31 prevents retinal degeneration in Drosophila by regulating Rhodopsin levels

Malte Lehmann, Sarita Hebbar, B. Grygo Sarah, Weihua Leng, Michaela Yuan, Sylke Winkler, Elisabeth Knust

This study shows that mutations in the splicing factor Prp31 in Drosophila cause light-dependent retinal degeneration by increasing rhodopsin 1 accumulation, which can be mitigated by reducing rhodopsin levels.
