Anatomy and Physiology of the Digestive Tract of Drosophila melanogaster

Bruno Lemaitre

The gastrointestinal tract has recently come to the forefront of multiple research fields. It is now recognized as a major source of signals modulating food intake, insulin secretion and energy balance. It is also a key player in immunity and, through its ...

Form - function relationships in dragonfly mandibles under an evolutionary perspective

Alessandra Patera

Functional requirements may constrain phenotypic diversification or foster it. For insect mouthparts, the quantification of the relationship between shape and function in an evolutionary framework remained largely unexplored. Here, the question of a functi ...

Unsteady fluid dynamics around a hovering flat plate wing

Swathi Badala Krishna

Insect flight is characterised by complex time-dependent flows in response to the unsteady wing movements. Biological fliers exploit the unsteady flow fields to modulate aerodynamic forces, thereby displaying unmatched flight performance, especially in hov ...

A simple plasmid-based transient gene expression method using High Five cells

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Virginie Bachmann, Xiao Shen

The High Five (H5) cell line, derived from the lepidopteran Trichoplusia ni, is one of the major insect cell hosts for the production of recombinant proteins using the baculovirus expression vector system (BEVS). Here, we describe a simple polyethylenimine ...

Genome Sequence of the Drosophila melanogaster Male-Killing Spiroplasma Strain MSRO Endosymbiont

Bruno Lemaitre, Ray Marcel Marin Florez, Juan Camilo Paredes Escobar, Jeremy Keith Herren

Spiroplasmas are helical and motile members of a cell wall-less eubacterial group called Mollicutes. Although all spiroplasmas are associated with arthropods, they exhibit great diversity with respect to both their modes of transmission and their effects o ...

Infection Dynamics and Immune Response in a Newly Described Drosophila-Trypanosomatid Association

Bruno Lemaitre, Anna Dostalova

Trypanosomatid parasites are significant causes of human disease and are ubiquitous in insects. Despite the importance of Drosophila melanogaster as a model of infection and immunity and a long awareness that trypanosomatid infection is common in the genus ...

Study of transposon-mediated cell pool and cell line generation in CHO cells

Sowmya Balasubramanian

The goal of this thesis was to evaluate the use of artificial transposon systems for the generation of recombinant cell pools and cell lines with Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells as the production host. Transposons are naturally occurring genetic elements ...

Development of plasmid-based expression technology for rapid and sustained production of recombinant proteins in insect cells

Xiao Shen

Due to the high demand for heterogeneous protein production in insect cells, we have established efficient methods for plasmid-based transient gene expression (TGE) in various insect cell lines, including commonly used Spodoptera cell lines Sf9 and HighFiv ...

Study of the improved Sf9 transient gene expression process

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Xiao Shen

Insect cells have been widely used for the production of recombinant proteins using recombinant baculovirus for gene delivery [1]. To simplify protein production in insect cells, we have previously described a method, based on transient gene expression (TG ...

Vertical transmission of a Drosophila endosymbiont via cooption of the yolk transport and internalization machinery

Bruno Lemaitre, Fanny Schüpfer, Juan Camilo Paredes Escobar, Jeremy Keith Herren

Spiroplasma is a diverse bacterial clade that includes many vertically transmitted insect endosymbionts, including Spiroplasma poulsonii, a natural endosymbiont of Drosophila melanogaster. These bacteria persist in the hemolymph of their adult host and exh ...
