✦ Synopsis


The polyglutamate status of reduced folates during the larval, pupal and adult stages of Drosophila melanogaster development was investigated. The chain length distribution is very similar and is predominantly pentaglutamate. Half-life estimates of the hydrolytic degradation to the monoglutamate showed larva less than pupa less than adult. This raises the possibility that polyglutamate hydrolase may have a role in regulating the total intracellular reduced folate content of the different developmental stages.

The development of the Drosophila embryo into an adult fly is a process that integrates cell proliferation and differentiation with programmed cell death, or apoptosis. Apoptosis is an evolutionarily conserved process that is controlled in the developing fly by the products of the genes reaper, grim
