TL;DR: The utility of 7,000 transgenic lines of Drosophila melanogaster for identifying novel neuronal cell types, revealing brain asymmetry, and describing the nature and extent of neuronal shape stereotypy is illustrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tools for neuroanatomy and neurogenetics in Drosophila
Barret D. Pfeiffer,Arnim Jenett,Ann S. Hammonds,Teri T.B. Ngo,Sima Misra,Christine Murphy,Audra Scully,Joseph W. Carlson,Kenneth H. Wan,Todd R. Laverty,Christopher J. Mungall,Rob Svirskas,James T. Kadonaga,Chris Q. Doe,Michael B. Eisen,Susan E. Celniker,Gerald M. Rubin +16 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the D. melanogaster genome contains >50,000 enhancers and that multiple enhancers drive distinct subsets of expression of a gene in each tissue and developmental stage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ras1 and a putative guanine nucleotide exchange factor perform crucial steps in signaling by the sevenless protein tyrosine kinase.
TL;DR: The results suggest that the stimulation of ras protein activity is a key element in the signaling by sevenless and Ellipse and that this stimulation may be achieved by activating the exchange of GTP for bound GDP by the rasprotein.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project gene disruption project: Single P-element insertions mutating 25% of vital Drosophila genes.

TL;DR: The results show that Drosophila genes have a wide range of sensitivity to inactivation by P elements, and provide a rationale for greatly expanding the BDGP primary collection based entirely on insertion site sequencing, and predict that this approach can bring >85% of all Dosophila open reading frames under experimental control.
