    Description: Studies that combine experimental manipulations with long-term data collection reveal elaborate interactions among species that affect the structure and dynamics of ecosystems. Research programs in U.S. desert shrubland and pinyon-juniper woodland have shown that (i) complex dynamics of species populations reflect interactions with other organisms and fluctuating climate; (ii) genotype x environment interactions affect responses of species to environmental change; (iii) herbivore-resistance traits of dominant plant species and impacts of "keystone" animal species cascade through the system to affect many organisms and ecosystem processes; and (iv) some environmental perturbations can cause wholesale reorganization of ecosystems because they exceed the ecological tolerances of dominant or keystone species, whereas other changes may be buffered because of the compensatory dynamics of complementary species.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Brown, J H -- Whitham, T G -- Morgan Ernest, S K -- Gehring, C A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Jul 27;293(5530):643-50.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 87131, USA. jhbrown@unm.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11474100" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The Drosophila gene eyeless (ey) encodes a transcription factor with both a paired domain and a homeodomain. It is homologous to the mouse Small eye (Pax-6) gene and to the Aniridia gene in humans. These genes share extensive sequence identity, the position of three intron splice sites is conserved, and these genes are expressed similarly in the developing nervous system and in the eye during morphogenesis. Loss-of-function mutations in both the insect and in the mammalian genes have been shown to lead to a reduction or absence of eye structures, which suggests that ey functions in eye morphogenesis. By targeted expression of the ey complementary DNA in various imaginal disc primordia of Drosophila, ectopic eye structures were induced on the wings, the legs, and on the antennae. The ectopic eyes appeared morphologically normal and consisted of groups of fully differentiated ommatidia with a complete set of photoreceptor cells. These results support the proposition that ey is the master control gene for eye morphogenesis. Because homologous genes are present in vertebrates, ascidians, insects, cephalopods, and nemerteans, ey may function as a master control gene throughout the metazoa.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Halder, G -- Callaerts, P -- Gehring, W J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1995 Mar 24;267(5205):1788-92.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Biozentrum, University of Basel, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7892602" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A Drosophila gene that contains both a paired box and a homeobox and has extensive sequence homology to the mouse Pax-6 (Small eye) gene was isolated and mapped to chromosome IV in a region close to the eyeless locus. Two spontaneous mutations, ey2 and eyR, contain transposable element insertions into the cloned gene and affect gene expression, particularly in the eye primordia. This indicates that the cloned gene encodes ey. The finding that ey of Drosophila, Small eye of the mouse, and human Aniridia are encoded by homologous genes suggests that eye morphogenesis is under similar genetic control in both vertebrates and insects, in spite of the large differences in eye morphology and mode of development.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Quiring, R -- Walldorf, U -- Kloter, U -- Gehring, W J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 5;265(5173):785-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Biology, University of Basel, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7914031" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Sialylated oligosaccharides, which are cell type-specific and developmentally regulated, have been implicated in a variety of complex biological events. Their broad functional importance is reflected by their presence in a wide variety of phyla extending from Echinodermata through higher vertebrates. Here, sialic acids are detected throughout development in an insect, Drosophila. Homopolymers of alpha 2,8-linked sialic acid, polysialic acid, are developmentally regulated and only expressed during early Drosophila development.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Roth, J -- Kempf, A -- Reuter, G -- Schauer, R -- Gehring, W J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1992 May 1;256(5057):673-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Biology, University of Basel, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1585182" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Mutations in the PARK2 (parkin) gene are responsible for an autosomal recessive form of Parkinson's disease. The parkin protein is a RING-in-between-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase that exhibits low basal activity. We describe the crystal structure of full-length rat parkin. The structure shows parkin in an autoinhibited state and provides insight into how it is activated. RING0 occludes the ubiquitin acceptor site Cys(431) in RING2, whereas a repressor element of parkin binds RING1 and blocks its E2-binding site. Mutations that disrupted these inhibitory interactions activated parkin both in vitro and in cells. Parkin is neuroprotective, and these findings may provide a structural and mechanistic framework for enhancing parkin activity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Trempe, Jean-Francois -- Sauve, Veronique -- Grenier, Karl -- Seirafi, Marjan -- Tang, Matthew Y -- Menade, Marie -- Al-Abdul-Wahid, Sameer -- Krett, Jonathan -- Wong, Kathy -- Kozlov, Guennadi -- Nagar, Bhushan -- Fon, Edward A -- Gehring, Kalle -- MOP-14219/Canadian Institutes of Health Research/Canada -- MOP-62714/Canadian Institutes of Health Research/Canada -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2013 Jun 21;340(6139):1451-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1237908.

    Description: The body plan of Drosophila is determined to a large extent by homeotic genes, which specify the identity and spatial arrangement of the body segments. Homeotic genes share a characteristic DNA segment, the homeo box, which encodes a defined domain of the homeotic proteins. The homeo domain seems to mediate the binding to specific DNA sequences, whereby the homeotic proteins exert a gene regulatory function. By isolating the normal Antennapedia gene, fusing its protein-coding sequences to an inducible promoter, and reintroducing this fusion gene into the germline of flies, it has been possible to transform head structures into thoracic structures and to alter the body plan in a predicted way. Sequence homologies suggest that similar genetic mechanisms may control development in higher organisms.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gehring, W J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1987 Jun 5;236(4806):1245-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2884726" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Segmentation genes control cell identities during early pattern formation in Drosophila. One of these genes, fushi tarazu (ftz), is now shown also to control cell fate during neurogenesis. Early in development, ftz is expressed in a striped pattern at the blastoderm stage. Later, it is transiently expressed in a specific subset of neuronal precursor cells, neurons (such as aCC, pCC, RP1, and RP2), and glia in the developing central nervous system (CNS). The function of ftz in the CNS was determined by creating ftz mutant embryos that express ftz in the blastoderm stripes but not in the CNS. In the absence of ftz CNS expression, some neurons appear normal (for example, the aCC, pCC, and RP1), whereas the RP2 neuron extends its growth cone along an abnormal pathway, mimicking its sibling (RP1), suggesting a transformation in neuronal identity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Doe, C Q -- Hiromi, Y -- Gehring, W J -- Goodman, C S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Jan 8;239(4836):170-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Sciences, Stanford University, CA 94305.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2892267" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
