The paper shows that degrading U-shaped in Drosophila S2 cells reprograms them to a lamellocyte-like state, mimicking macrophage transdifferentiation.

The paper identifies hangover's role in regulating gene expression by inhibiting NSL-mediated H4K16 acetylation at transcriptional start sites in Drosophila.

The paper shows RNA inhibits dMi-2/CHD4 chromatin binding and nucleosome remodelling by competing with nucleosome substrates, suggesting an evolutionary conserved mechanism.

This study identifies Ush's role in regulating gene expression, metabolism, and cell cycle in Drosophila hematopoiesis through its interaction with the NuRD complex.
