Exploring the role of transposable elements to sex gap in longevity in Drosophila species

The paper investigates the role of transposable elements in the sex gap of longevity across three Drosophila species, finding age-related TE expression and Y chromosome effects on male lifespan.

Identification and quantification of transposable element transcripts using Long-Read RNA-seq in Drosophila germline tissues

This study uses long-read RNA-seq to identify and quantify transposable element transcripts at the copy level in Drosophila germline tissues, revealing differences in their transcriptional landscape between testes and ovaries.

Intricate interactions between antiviral immunity and transposable element control in Drosophila

This study shows that transposable elements (TEs) are involved in a dual response to Drosophila C Virus infection, where TE control is released and TE transcripts help reduce viral replication.

A quantitative, genome-wide analysis in Drosophila reveals transposable elements' influence on gene expression is species-specific

This study quantifies the species-specific impact of transposable elements on gene expression and histone marks in Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila simulans using transcriptomic and epigenomic data.

ChimeraTE: A pipeline to detect chimeric transcripts derived from genes and transposable elements

ChimeraTE detects chimeric transcripts from genes and transposable elements using two modes, identifying ~1.12% of genes generating such transcripts, with ~23% absent from the reference genome.

Transposable element expression with variation in sex chromosome number: insights into a toxic Y effect on human longevity

The paper investigates the association between transposable element expression and Y chromosome number in humans, suggesting a toxic Y effect on male longevity.

Phenotypic and transcriptomic responses to stress differ according to population geography in an invasive species

The paper examines how invasive and non-invasive populations of D. suzukii respond to oxidative stress, finding differences in lifespan and gene expression that suggest rapid adaptation.
