Dong D, Zhu S, Qin C, Kumar V, Stein J, Oehler S, et al.
IEEE J Biomed Health Inform . 2012 Sep; 17(1):198-204. PMID: 23008264
Finding the center of rotation is an essential step for accurate three-dimensional reconstruction in optical projection tomography (OPT). Unfortunately current methods are not convenient since they require either prior scanning...

Lagos D, Koukidou M, Savakis C, Komitopoulou K
Insect Mol Biol . 2007 Feb; 16(2):221-30. PMID: 17298554
Transformer (tra) is the second gene of a regulatory cascade based on RNA splicing that determines sex in Drosophila melanogaster. Splicing of tra transcripts is regulated by the master gene...

Koukidou M, Klinakis A, Reboulakis C, Zagoraiou L, Tavernarakis N, Livadaras I, et al.
Insect Mol Biol . 2006 Feb; 15(1):95-103. PMID: 16469073
The olive fruit fly (olive fly) Bactrocera oleae (Dacus), recently introduced in North America, is the most destructive pest of olives worldwide. The lack of an efficient gene transfer technology...

Liepouri F, Deligeorgiev T, Veneti Z, Savakis C, Katerinopoulos H
Cell Calcium . 2002 Jul; 31(5):221-7. PMID: 12098224
Two new potential near-membrane iminocoumarin-based fluorescent Ca(2+) indicators were synthesized and the spectral profiles of their free and Ca(2+) bound forms were studied. The probes incorporate in their BAPTA-related structures,...

Zagoraiou L, Drabek D, Alexaki S, Guy J, Klinakis A, Langeveld A, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2001 Sep; 98(20):11474-8. PMID: 11562481
Transposable elements have been used widely in the past 20 years for gene transfer and insertional mutagenesis in Drosophila. Transposon-based technology for gene manipulation and genomic analysis currently is being...

Christophides G, Savakis C, Mintzas A, Komitopoulou K
Insect Mol Biol . 2001 Jul; 10(3):249-54. PMID: 11437916
The aim of development of a Mediterranean fruit fly Ceratitis capitata genetic sexing strain derives from the large scale SIT programmes being carried out to control this pest. Toward this...

Arca B, Savakis C
Genetica . 2001 Apr; 108(3):263-7. PMID: 11294613
We analyzed 28 species of the genus Drosophila for the presence of the Tc1-like transposable element Minos using Southern blot hybridization under high stringency conditions. The Minos transposon was found...

Klinakis A, Zagoraiou L, Vassilatis D, Savakis C
EMBO Rep . 2001 Mar; 1(5):416-21. PMID: 11258481
The development of efficient non-viral methodologies for genome-wide insertional mutagenesis and gene tagging in mammalian cells is highly desirable for functional genomic analysis. Here we describe transposon mediated mutagenesis (TRAMM),...

Brogna S, Benos P, Gasperi G, Savakis C
Mol Biol Evol . 2001 Mar; 18(3):322-9. PMID: 11230533
cDNAs for alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) isozymes were cloned and sequenced from two tephritid fruit flies, the medfly Ceratitis capitata and the olive fly Bactrocera oleae. Because of the high sequence...

Gourzi P, Gubb D, Livadaras Y, Caceres C, Franz G, Savakis C, et al.
Mol Gen Genet . 2000 Oct; 264(1-2):127-36. PMID: 11016842
The construction of the first balancer chromosome, FiM1, for the medfly Ceratitis capitata is described. This chromosome has three overlapping pericentric inversions and is marked with dominant and recessive mutations....
