Abstract Animal behavior is principally expressed through neural control of muscles. Therefore understanding how the brain controls requires mapping neuronal circuits all way to motor neurons. We have previously established technology collect large-volume electron microscopy data sets tissue and fully reconstruct morphology neurons their chemical synaptic connections throughout volume. Using these tools we generated a dense wiring diagram, or connectome, for large portion Drosophila central...

In most animals, a relatively small number of descending neurons (DNs) connect higher brain centers in the animal’s head to circuits and motor (MNs) nerve cord body that effect movement limbs. To understand how signals generate behavior, it is critical these pathways are organized onto MNs. fly, Drosophila melanogaster , MNs controlling muscles leg, wing, other systems reside ventral (VNC), analogous mammalian spinal cord. companion papers, we introduced densely-reconstructed connectome Male...

Techniques that enable precise manipulations of subsets neurons in the fly central nervous system (CNS) have greatly facilitated our understanding neural basis behavior. Split-GAL4 driver lines allow specific targeting cell types Drosophila melanogaster and other species. We describe here a collection 3060 range adult CNS 1373 characterized third-instar larvae. These tools functional, transcriptomic, proteomic studies based on anatomical targeting. NeuronBridge search relate light microscopy...

Micronuclei have been used extensively in studies as an easily evaluated indicator of DNA damage but little is known about their association with other types such nucleoplasmic bridges and nuclear buds. Here, radiation-induced clastogenic events were via the cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay two normal human lymphoblastoid cell lines exposed to neutrons or γ-radiation. induced by chemical agents mitomycin C phleomycin was also mitochondrial mutant lines. In addition micronuclei, buds...

Summary Natural behaviors are a coordinated symphony of motor acts which drive self-induced or reafferent sensory activation. Single sensors only signal presence and magnitude cue; they cannot disambiguate exafferent (externally-induced) from sources. Nevertheless, animals readily differentiate between these sources signals to make appropriate decisions initiate adaptive behavioral outcomes. This is mediated by predictive signaling mechanisms, emanate control pathways processing pathways,...

Abstract Background Abelson tyrosine kinase (Abl) plays a key role in axon guidance linking receptors to actin dynamics. The long C-terminal domain (CTD) of Drosophila Abl is important for this role, and previous work identified the ‘first quarter’ (1Q) CTD as essential. Here, we link physical interactions 1Q binding partners Abl’s function guidance. Methods Protein were by GST pulldown mass spectrometry, validated using assays embryonic nerve cord motoneurons. was assessed genetically,...
