Drosophila melanogaster as a platform for the functional expression of engineered PET-degrading enzymes

Valentina Pirillo, Federica Barca, Daniele Bruno, Sara Caramella, Claudia Fontana, Matteo Battistolli, Elena Catelan‐Carphio, Davis Roma, Morena Casartelli, Silvia Caccia, Alessandro Grapputo, Gianluca Tettamanti, Gianluca Molla, Federica Sandrelli

This paper expresses engineered PET-degrading enzymes in transgenic Drosophila melanogaster and identifies TA-{Delta}LCC as a more effective variant for PET nanoparticle degradation.

Sperm production is negatively associated with muscle and sperm telomere length in a highly polyandrous species

Elisa Morbiato, Silvia Cattelan, Andrea Pilastro, Alessandro Grapputo

The paper finds that in guppies, telomere length is negatively correlated with sperm production, suggesting a trade-off between reproduction and maintenance rather than aging.
