Novel Mutants of the Aubergine Gene
Authors:Şahin, H. Bahar; Karataş, Ömer Faruk; Specchia, Valeria; Di Tommaso, Silvia D.; Diebold, Celine; Bozzetti, Maria Pia; Giangrande, Angela
Publisher and Date:(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2016)Aubergine is an RNA-binding protein of the Piwi clade functioning in germline in the piRNA pathway that silences transposons and repetitive sequences. Several mutations of this gene exist but they mostly result in truncated proteins or correspond to mutations that also affect neighboring genes. We have generated complete aubergine knock-out mutants that do not disrupt the neighboring genes. These novel mutants are characterized by PCR and sequencing. Their nature is confirmed by female sterility ...

Salt inducible kinases as novel Notch interactors in the developing Drosophilaretina
Authors:Şahin, H. Bahar; Sayın, Sercan; Holder, Maxine; Bugra, Kuyaş; Çelik, Arzu
Publisher and Date:(Public Library Science, 2020)Developmental processes require strict regulation of proliferation, differentiation and patterning for the generation of final organ size. Aberrations in these fundamental events are critically important in tumorigenesis and cancer progression.Salt inducible kinases(Siks) are evolutionarily conserved genes involved in diverse biological processes, including salt sensing, metabolism, muscle, cartilage and bone formation, but their role in development remains largely unknown. Recent findings implicate ...
