Periodic Reporting for period 1 - EpiMethFly (Study of the role of m6A RNA methylation in the nervous system of Drosophila melanogaster: an in-vivo model to dissect the impact of epitranscriptome reprogramming in physiology and cancer)

The project is focused on understanding the role of RNA modifications and, in particular, one form of RNA methylation (m6A) during normal and aberrant development of the nervous system using a powerful genetic model, such as the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. The study of...
