Modulation of the Drosophila Transcriptome by Developmental Exposure to Alcohol

Tatiana V. Morozova, Vijay Shankar, Rebecca A. MacPherson, Trudy F. C. Mackay, Robert R. H. Anholt

The paper develops a Drosophila model for Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder and finds that developmental alcohol exposure modulates gene and non-coding RNA networks related to nervous system development and ethanol metabolism.
