Interplay of Spoonbill, Larp7 and survival motor neuron, in Drosophila model of Spinocerebellar Ataxia 8 non-coding RNA associated neurodegeneration

The paper identifies dLarp7 and SMN as interacting proteins that modulate SCA8-associated neurodegeneration in Drosophila, suggesting shared molecular mechanisms in neurodegenerative diseases.

Notch and LIM-homeodomain protein Arrowhead regulate each other in a feedback mechanism to play a role in wing and neuronal development in Drosophila

The paper identifies Arrowhead as a novel Notch pathway effector, showing feedback regulation with Notch in Drosophila wing and neuronal development.

E3 ubiquitin ligase Deltex facilitates the expansion of Wingless gradient and antagonizes Wingless signaling through a conserved mechanism of transcriptional effector Armadillo/β-catenin degradation

This study identifies Deltex as a regulator of Wg signaling by modulating the gradient and degradation of Armadillo/β-catenin across species.

A forward genetic approach to mapping a P-element second site mutation identifies DCP2 as a novel tumor suppressor in Drosophila melanogaster

This paper identifies DCP2 as a tumor suppressor in Drosophila melanogaster through a forward genetic screen and validates its role in tumor biology.

Characterisation of l(3)tb as a novel tumour suppressor allele of DCP2 in Drosophila melanogaster

The paper identifies a novel tumour suppressor allele of DCP2 in Drosophila melanogaster and demonstrates its role in tumor suppression through genetic analysis.
