Newest firstBackground Chronic pain, which is often unrelated to ongoing injury, is poorly understood and difficult to treat. Genetic studies have identified voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels, particularly gain-of-function mutations such as L858F and R1150W in human NaV1.7, as involved in the development of chronic pain. Methods A chronic pain model was proposed in Drosophila using the parabss1 mutant. Behavioural chemical…
Open article record in new tab ↗During the asymmetric division of Drosophila neuroblasts (NBs), the scaffold Miranda (Mira) coordinates the subcellular distribution of cell-fate determinants including Staufen (Stau) and segregates them into the ganglion mother cells (GMCs). Here we show the fifth double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-binding domain (dsRBD5) of Stau is necessary and sufficient for binding to a coiled-coil region of Mira cargo-binding domai…
The central complex of Drosophila melanogaster plays important functions in various behaviors, such as visual and olfactory memory, visual orientation, sleep, and movement control. However little is known about the genes regulating the development of the central complex. Here we report that a mutant gene affecting central complex morphology, cbd (central brain defect), was mapped to ten-a, a type II trans-membrane…
