Cell-type-specific nucleotide sharing through gap junctions impacts sensitivity to replication stress in Drosophila

Boumard et al. demonstrate gap-junction-dependent tissue-scale nucleotide sharing, which impacts cellular sensitivity to perturbation of nucleotide homeostasis and replication stress. Drosophila wing ...

Our institution has given a generous donation as well as our fly labs. Convince yours to do so as well!

Mark A. Hanson @hansonmark.bsky.social · Aug 14

A reminder you/your lab can support FlyBase at Cambridge through the following link. Every bit helps. Please share if you yourself can't donate.

This is terrible news.
Clearly, a solution MUST be found!
Flybase is ESSENTIAL!!

Tim Mosca (he/him) @drosophilosophy.bsky.social · Aug 13

An absolutely awful turn of events. I am heartbroken over the firing of the Flybase staff. Thanks to @claudia-lopez.bsky.social for covering this important story.

The Transmitter @thetransmitter.bsky.social · Aug 13

FlyBase, a Drosophila database, will lose a third of its team in early October because the Harvard grant that covered the employees’ salaries was canceled. Scientists warn that losing FlyBase could devastate fly research.

Danielle Spitzer @dspitzer.bsky.social · Aug 7

My PhD work from @hariharanlab.bsky.social is finally out in @dev-journal.bsky.social! We investigated an interesting paradox: how can reduced function of the adhesion molecule Echinoid (Ed) cause seemingly opposite phenotypes—overgrowth and elimination—in different contexts? (1/8)

Development @dev-journal.bsky.social · Aug 7

The cell-adhesion molecule Echinoid promotes tissue survival and separately restricts tissue overgrowth.

Read this #OA Research Article by Danielle Spitzer
@dspitzer.bsky.social , William Sun, Anthony Rodríguez-Vargas, and Iswar Hariharan:

journals.biologists.com/dev/article/...

Fig.3. echinoid clones are generated and then die, especially when more wild-type tissue is present. (A-F) Wing discs containing GFP-marked clones expressing either UAS-w-RNAi (A,C,E) or UAS-ed-RNAi (B,D,F). Heat shocks of 12 min (A,B), 15 min (C,D) and 30 min (E,F) generate clones at progressively higher density. Scale bar in H applies to H-K. Scale bar in A applies to A-F.

attention 🪰folks. many of you received a survey from @genetics-gsa.bsky.social about potential future sites of the US Fly meeting. We are excited for #Dros26 Chicago, but future sites are in question, for many logistical reasons. GSA is hard at work planning, but we need to hear from you. please RT!

"Yes" for knowledge in experimental stem cell biology, but "no" for mouse expertise... though I might still be able to dissect tetrads and I can definitely do fly crosses...
