Menin Is a Regulator of the Stress Response in Drosophila melanogaster

Menin, the product of the multiple endocrine neoplasia type I gene, has been implicated in several biological processes, including the control of gene expression and apoptosis, the modulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways, and DNA damage sensing or repair. In this study, we have investigated the function of menin in the model organism Drosophila melanogaster. We show that Drosophila lines overexpressing menin or an RNA …
