    About the #nuclear #porecomplex (#NPC) #protein #Nup107 regulating broader #neuroendocrine functions in #fly larval #brains. The authors J. Kawadkar et al. (2026) in experiments reduced the Nup107 protein that enables #moleculetransfer between nucleus and cellular cytoplasma in #fruitflies using suitable genetic tools. According to the authors, there is a wider context between the protein and larval #developmentalprocesses based on the #steroidhormone #ecdysone.

  2. #introduction I mostly work using in silico experiments and mathematical modeling to understand how properties of biological systems affect their evolution. Some of the topics I have studied include:

    The effect of #epistasis in the accumulation and purging of deleterious mutations in organisms with high mutation rates. #mutationload

    How the #modularity of
    #DevelopmentalProcesses affect the #PhenotypicVariability of biological systems. #IntroductionBias
