A quasistatic nanoindentation technique, enhanced by scanning probe microscopy, was used to measure cuticle stiffness of live Drosophila melanogaster during its larval, pupal, and early adult development in vivo. Stiffness was defined as the reduced elastic modulus (E(r)), which is a material proper

This report focuses on dorso-ventral patterning in the segmented region of the Drosophila melanogaster embryo. According to the concept of positional information, this pattern results from the different response of cells to the Dorsal-protein morphogen. This protein shows a distribution gradient alo
## Abstract Inhibition of proteasome degradation pathway has been implicated in neuronal cell death leading to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease. We and others demonstrated that treatment of cortical neurons with the proteasomal inhibitor lactacystin lea
We have characterized the constitutive and stress-inducible pattern of immunoglobulinbinding protein (BiP) gene expression during Xenopus early development. Whole mount in situ hybridization analysis revealed that BiP mRNA was detected in unfertilized eggs, cleavage and blastula stage embryos. In ga
## Abstract In order to gain a better understanding of how a defect in pyrimidine biosynthesis leads to the specific set of morphological aberrations seen in __Drosophila__ bearing the mutant allele of __rudimentary__, we made the following measurements of enzyme activity in wild type flies: (1) du
