High impact information on POSH

  • Neural-specific overexpression of DPOSH is sufficient to extend the longevity, whereas overexpression in non-neural tissues during development induces apoptosis through activation of JNK/SAPK pathway [1].
  • In contrast, forced expression of DPOSH in developing imaginal discs produced various phenotypes including lethality and morphological defects such as loss of crossvein, notched wing, and disordered hair polarity [2].
