Abstract

Active Transport, Cell Nucleus Animals Cell Nucleus - metabolism Cell Nucleus Division DNA Packaging Drosophila - embryology Drosophila - genetics Drosophila - metabolism Drosophila Proteins - metabolism Embryo, Nonmammalian - metabolism Genome, Insect Histones - metabolism Lipid Metabolism Lipids - chemistry Organelles - metabolism Phosphorylation Triglycerides
New research on lipid droplets in Drosophila embryos has led to the surprising conclusion that these poorly understood organelles have a novel role as a regulated storage depot of maternally supplied proteins, particularly histones.
