Research Abstract |
Malpighian tubules of Drosophila melanogaster have functions homologous to those of mammalian kidney, and maintain homeostasis by excreting waste matter from the body fluid. This study has shown that the homeodomain transcription factor Defective proventriculus (Dve) is essential for functional differentiation of these cells and their stress response to high-salt diet.
