    Journal of molecular evolution 16 (1980), S. 37-46

    Notes: Summary The evolutionary behavior of two mitochondrial enzymes (L-glycerol 3-phosphate:cytochrome c oxidoreductase E.C.1.1.1.95,αGPO, and L-malate: NAD+ oxidoreductase, E.C.1.1.1.37, m-MDH) obtained from several temperate and tropicalDrosophila species was examined by comparing their catalytic properties, which related to temperature (Km-Ea-Q10-Thermostability). MitochondrialαGPO or m-MDH obtained either from temperate or from tropical species was found to exhibit similar catalytic properties while for both cytosolic enzymes, theαGPDH and s-MDH, Km patterns were similar among species from the same thermal habitat and different between thermal habitats. In combination with other observations reported in the literature these facts support the view that the function, and probably the structure, of mitochondrial enzymes are better conserved in evolution than those of the corresponding enzymes found in the cytosol. It is proposed that the relative invariance of the mitochondrial enzymes structure is probably linked to a necessary relative invariance of molecular interactions inside the mitochondrion.

    The effect of temperature onshibire ts cell clones in the compound eye ofDrosophila melanogaster (1980)

    Development genes and evolution 188 (1980), S. 55-63 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-041X
    Keywords: Drosophila ; Compound eye ; shibire ts ; Development
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary We have analysed the effect of temperature on both developing and adult eye cell clones homozygous forshi ST139, a temperature-sensitive mutant ofDrosophila melanogaster. The mutant gene, autonomous in its cellular expression, causes structural modifications of ommatidial cells when adult clones of cells are exposed to the restrictive temperature (29°C) for several days. However, the mutant phenotype reverses to normal within 4 days at the permissive temperature (20°C). The results of pulse, shift-up and shift-down experiments show that the temperaturesensitive period for developing compound eye cells is from the late second instar up to the early pupa. Cytodifferentiation of compound eye cells is blocked by restrictive temperature treatment during this period, whereas cell proliferation does not seem to be directly affected. These results are discussed with regard to the other known aspects of the phenotype observed in mutant individuals.

    Morphogenesis in the embryo ofDrosophila melanogaster — Germ band extension (1980)

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary Changes at the ultrastructural level during germ band extension in the embryo ofDrosophila melanogaster are described. Cytoplasmic connections between cells and the yolk sac are present during initial cellular movements. At this time, a continuous system of microfilaments is present adjacent to the membranes in the connections and at the periphery of the yolk sac. As germ band extension progresses, this system becomes discontinuous, and microfilaments are apparent only in the immediate vicinity of the connections. Cytoplasmic connections are disassembled at approximately the midpoint of extension; at the same time, extensive membrane associations develop between germ band cells and between these cells and adjacent yolk sac membranes. Positioning and orientation of cytoplasmic connections suggest that the yolk sac, via these connections, is actively involved in the cellular movements of early germ band extension.

    Developmental studies on two ecdysone deficient mutants ofDrosophila melanogaster (1980)

    Keywords: Drosophila ; Ecdysone deficient mutants ; Ecdysteroid titer ; Ring gland ; Fine structure
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary This paper describes two ecdysone-deficient, recessive-lethal mutants,lethal(1)giant ring gland (grg) andlethal(1)suppressor of forked mad-ts (mad-ts: Jürgens and Gateff 1979) and compares their ecdysteroid titers with that of the wild-type. Mutant larvae show a much reduced ecdysteroid content, amounting to 1/10 to 1/30 of the wild-type values, but never a true titer peak. They fail to pupate and die after 1–3 weeks. Ecdysteroid feeding elicits different responses in the larvae of the two mutants.mad-ts larvae pupate within 24 h, thus showing that their low ecdysteroid titer is directly connected to their inability to pupate.mad-ts resembles the mutantlethal (3)ecdysone-1 ts (Garen et al. 1977). Thegrg mutant larvae, on the other hand, fail to pupate after 20-hydroxyecdysone feeding as well as injection. The primary defect of thegrg mutant is not entirely clear. Thegrg larval salivary gland cells appear to possess normal ecdysteroid receptors. Furthermore, the low ecdysteroid titer ingrg is not the result of an increased ecdysteroid catabolism. The primary defect in the mutant may lie in the malfunctioning neurosecretory cells which do not show neurosecretion in histological preparations. Further support for this notion comes from electronmicrographs of the enlargedgrg ring glands which, in contrast to the wild-type, do not possess nerve endings. In the wild-type three ecdysteroid peaks were found: one shortly before puparium formation, the second at approximately 12 h and the third at about 30 h after pupation. The ecdysteroid titer peak in late third instar, wild-type larvae is mainly due to the presence of 20-dydroxyecdysone as shown by radioimmunoassays after thin layer chromatography and derivatization followed by gas liquid chromatography and mass spectroscopy. In addition, a number of unidentified polar and apolar metabolites were also present.

    Compartments and distal outgrowth in theDrosophila imaginal wing disc (1980)
    Springer
    Development genes and evolution 188 (1980), S. 157-161 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-041X
    Keywords: Drosophila ; Imaginal discs ; Compartments ; Distal outgrowth
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary Peripheral tissue of the imaginal wing disc gives rise to the proximal mesothoracic structures of the adult. Pieces of peripheral tissue, which have no regenerative capacity when cultured as intact fragments, are capable of distal outgrowth (regeneration) after dissociation and reaggregation. This ability depends on the region of the disc periphery from which the fragment is taken. Extensive distal outgrowth occurs in reaggreages of a fragment containing equal proportions of tissue from anterior and posterior developmental compartments. The extent of outgrowth decreases as the proportion of posterior tissue is reduced, so that a fragment containing only anterior tissue shows no regeneration after dissociation. Limited distal outgrowth occurs in reaggregates of a wholly posterior fragment, but the regenerative capacity is increased greatly when a small amount of anterior tissue is included. It is concluded that distal outgrowth in the wing disc requires an interaction between cells of the anterior and posterior compartments.

    Is regeneration inDrosophila the result of epimorphic regulation? (1980)
    Springer
    Development genes and evolution 189 (1980), S. 91-96 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-041X
    Keywords: Epimorphic regulation ; Drosophila ; Imaginal discs
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary It has been known for many years that when a wing disc ofDrosophila is bisected, and the fragments cultured in adult females, regulation occurs and either a complete disc is regenerated or the fragment is duplicated. We have investigated how this regeneration process occurs. To establish which cells contribute to the regenerate, and thus determine if regeneration is the result of epimorphic regulation, fragments of discs, after culture in an adult for one to five days, were exposed to3H-thymidine to label replicating cells. Imaginal discs, both whole and as regenerating fragments, undergo some DNA replication which is distributed throughout the disc, but cut discs frequently show clusters of labelled cells around the wound, indicating that regeneration is probably epimorphic.

    Embryogenesis inDrosophila: Can a single mechanism explain the developmental segregation of germ-line and somatic cells and their subsequent determination? (1980)

    Keywords: Determination ; Germ-line ; Somatic cells ; Inhibitor gradient hypothesis ; Drosophila
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary A hypothesis is presented which explains the segregation of germ cells from somatic cells, and the subsequent determination of both cell types with a single mechanism. This hypothesis is in part based on that of Meinhardt (1977) and can be summarized as follows: In the newly fertilized egg, the action of a sink in the pole plasm leads to the formation of an anterior-posterior gradient of an inhibitor. The concentration of this inhibitor in the posterior 20% of the egg is below that needed to repress synthesis of an activator. When, during the nuclear division stage, nuclei enter this posterior region, synthesis of the activator begins. As the activator is autocatalytic, this leads to the formation of a peak of activator in this region; and since the activator also catalyses the synthesis of the inhibitor, a peak of inhibitor is formed in the same place. The inhibitor then diffuses anteriorly through the periplasm, forming a posterior-anterior gradient. The presence of this inhibitor in the periplasm causes the nuclei that enter the periplasm to form blastoderm cells and to take up particular segmental states appropriate to their position, while those that remain in the yolk-containing plasm develop into vitellophages. The action of the sink in the pole plasm is postulated to result in the formation of the pole cells, and subsequently to direct some of these into forming cells of the germ-line.

    The morphological response of Kc-H cells to ecdysteroids: Hormonal specificity (1980)

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary Cells of the line Kc, derived fromDrosophila melanogaster embryos, extend long processes when exposed to ecdysteroid hormones. We have devised a quantitative assay for this morphological response, using the subline Kc-H. The assay was used to characterize the conditions required for the response. A halfmaximal response is elicited by approximately 10−8M 20-hydroxyecdysone; the response is saturated by 10−7M 20-hydroxyecdysone, which causes detectable elongation within a few hours, and a maximal response after 2–3 days. The response occurs substantially normally in the absence of serum, during growth in suspension, and in over-crowded cultures. It is not elicited by cyclic nucleotides, vertebrate growth factors, or a variety of other non-ecdysteroid reagents. Of 60 ecdysteroid compounds tested, only those which were active in other insect test systems elicited the response, and the concentrations required were approximately proportional to the concentrations active in other in vitro systems. We conclude that the response of Kc cells to 20-hydroxyecdysone retains basic features of the ecdysteroid response of intact tissues and therefore that Kc cells are a useful model system for studying ecdysteroid action.

    Keywords: Eggshell ; Chorion ; Peroxidase ; Crosslinking ; Drosophila
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary TheDrosophila chorion contains an endogenous peroxidase activity which remains inactive until late stage 14 when it catalyzes the crosslinking of the chorionic proteins. Using explanted follicles developing in vitro, premature, but otherwise normal crosslinking can be induced with hydrogen peroxide and normal crosslinking can be prevented with peroxidase inhibitors. Inhibition or premature activation of the shell peroxidase allows characterization of chorionic filament specific proteins and establishes new criteria for the identification of eggshell components.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary The synthesis of a protein which has been detected in blastoderm cells but not in pole cells (Gutzeit and Gehring 1979) has been studied further by means of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. This protein could not be detected at the nuclear multiplication stage. The protein is translated from mRNA which is transcribed at the blastoderm stage since it is not synthesized in detectable amounts when embryos are injected with α-amanitin prior to the blastoderm stage. Also the protein could not be detected when RNA from freshly laid eggs was translated in vitro. Embryos from females which are homozygous for the mutationmat (3) 1 form pole cells but no blastoderm cells (Rice and Garen 1975). Thesemat (3) 1 embryos, as we will call them in this report, express the protein if aged for a period of time sufficient for completion of blastoderm cell formation in control wild-type embryos.mat (3) 1 embryos and embryos injected with α-amanitin show the same syndrome of visible developmental anomalies; however, the studied protein could only be detected inmat (3) 1 embryos but not in α-amanitin injected embryos.
