This study identifies Prefoldin 5 as a microtubule-associated protein that suppresses Tau-aggregation and neurotoxicity in Drosophila.

This study identifies Highwire/Phr1 as an endocytosis-regulated E3 ubiquitin ligase that controls JNK signaling and synaptic growth in Drosophila neurons.

This study shows that dAsap regulates membrane protrusions in Drosophila S2R+ cells through Arf6 inactivation via its ArfGAP domain and re-localization of actin regulators.

This study shows that Beadex is required for neuromuscular junction growth and sensorimotor activities in Drosophila, with genetic interactions indicating its role downstream of Highwire.

This study identifies dAsap as a regulator of NMJ morphology and synaptic calcium homeostasis in Drosophila through Arf6-dependent signaling.

This study shows that AP2 regulates Tkv internalization and recycling via Rab11 to control synaptic growth in Drosophila.

This study investigates the role of Dmon1 and Rab7 in regulating GluRIIA levels at the Drosophila neuromuscular junction, showing their interaction in the endo-lysosomal pathway.

This study identifies Choline Transporter (ChT) enrichment in Drosophila mushroom body β core neurons and shows its non-canonical role in regulating pupal eclosion and neuromuscular junction integrity.
