This project investigates how bioactive lipids influence the behavior of germ and heart cells during development in Drosophila. It aims to identify the specific lipids involved, understand their mechanisms of action, and explore the conservation of these processes in other organisms.
Signalling between cells regulates many aspects of their behaviour.
Although much work has focused on proteins, bioactive lipids also have potent effects on cells.
In Drosophila lipid signalling is implicated in guiding migrating germ cells.
The germ cells, which later will become sperm or eggs, undergo a stereotyped migration during embryogenesis to reach the gonad.
Enzymes of the lipid phosphate phosphatase (LPP) class are expressed in regions of the embryo that germ cells normally avoid and s…
