AB  - In Drosophila melanogaster, two members of the Ski/Sno protein family exist, the Ski novel oncogene (Snoo) (Barrio et al. 2007) and the functional Smad suppressing element (Fuss) (Fischer et al. 2012). We have previously shown that Fuss is specifically expressed in gustatory receptor neurons (GRNs) and interneurons in the central nervous system (CNS). We created a loss of function allele fussdelDS and showed that loss of fuss had no impact on survival rate during development or on adult life span. In fact, fussdelDS flies display an impaired bitter GRN development and bitter taste reception (Rass et al. 2019).
