This study identifies sex-specific ATF4 expression in Drosophila fat tissue that contributes to female stress tolerance during nutrient deprivation.

This study shows ATF4 interacts with EcR to both activate and repress lipid metabolism genes in Drosophila fat body under homeostasis and stress conditions.

This study shows that ring canals in Drosophila larval adipose tissue mediate intercellular communication to buffer ER stress and support tissue viability.

The paper identifies ATF4 as a target of Hbs1-Pelo translation regulation, showing its role in visual system development and function in Drosophila and human cells.

This study identifies Atf4 as a metabolic sensor in fat tissue that regulates oogenesis and ovulation in Drosophila by modulating yolk lipoprotein synthesis and neuropeptide secretion.

This study uses a protein-trap allele to investigate Drosophila ATF4 (crc) functions in photoreceptor degeneration, oocyte maturation, and wing development.
