Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The conserved cytokine-induced apoptosis inhibitor-1 (CIAPIN1) gene has been implicated in several processes, such as apoptosis, cell division, angiogenesis and Fe/S protein biogenesis. In this study, we identified the Drosophila CIAPIN1 homologue (D-CIAPIN1) and studied its role in ovarian development. RESULTS: We found that D-CIAPIN1 is conserved as it can complement the nonviability of the yeast...
