However, the molecular mechanisms linking these mutations to HCM remain unknown. Here, we establish Drosophila melanogaster as a model to understand this connection by generating flies harboring MYBPC3 missense mutations (A31P and R820W) associated with feline HCM. The A31P and R820W flies displayed cardiovascular defects in their heart rates and exercise endurance. We used RNA-seq to determine which processes are misregulated in the presence of mutant MYBPC3 alleles. Transcriptome analysis revealed significant downregulation of genes encoding small nucleolar RNA (snoRNAs) in exercised female flies harboring the mutant alleles compared to flies that harbor the wild-type allele. Other processes that were affected included the unfolded protein response and immune/defense responses. These data show that mutant MYBPC3 proteins have widespread effects on the transcriptome of co-regulated genes. Transcriptionally differentially expressed genes are also candidate genes for future evaluation as genetic modifiers of HCM as well as candidate genes for genotype by exercise environment interaction effects on the manifestation of HCM; in cats as well as humans.}, number={1}, journal={G3-GENES GENOMES GENETICS}, author={Tallo, Christian A. and Duncan, Laura H. and Yamamoto, Akihiko H. and Slaydon, Joshua D. and Arya, Gunjan H. and Turlapati, Lavanya and Mackay, Trudy F.

Here, we performed deep RNA sequencing of 200 Drosophila Genetic Reference Panel inbred lines with complete genome sequences, and mapped expression quantitative trait loci for annotated genes, novel transcribed regions (most of which are long noncoding RNAs), transposable elements and microbial species. We identified host variants that affect expression of transposable elements, independent of their copy number, as well as microbiome composition. We constructed sex-specific expression quantitative trait locus regulatory networks. These networks are enriched for novel transcribed regions and target genes in heterochromatin and euchromatic regions of reduced recombination, and genes regulating transposable element expression. This study provides new insights regarding the role of natural genetic variation in regulating gene expression and generates testable hypotheses for future functional analyses.}, number={3}, journal={GENOME RESEARCH}, author={Everett, Logan J. and Huang, Wen and Zhou, Shanshan and Carbone, Mary Anna and Lyman, Richard F. and Arya, Gunjan H. and Geisz, Matthew S. and Ma, Junwu and Morgante, Fabio and St Armour, Genevieve and et al.}, year={2020}, month={Mar}, pages={485–496} } @article{gabrawy_campbell_carbone_morozova_arya_turlapati_walston_starz-gaiano_everett_mackay_et al._2019, title={Lisinopril Preserves Physical Resilience and Extends Life Span in a Genotype-Specific Manner in Drosophila melanogaster}, volume={74}, ISSN={["1758-535X"]}, DOI={10.1093/gerona/glz152}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={12}, journal={JOURNALS OF GERONTOLOGY SERIES A-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES AND MEDICAL SCIENCES}, author={Gabrawy, Mariann M. and Campbell, Sarah and Carbone, Mary Anna and Morozova, Tatiana V and Arya, Gunjan H. and Turlapati, Lavanya B. and Walston, Jeremy D. and Starz-Gaiano, Michelle and Everett, Logan and Mackay, Trudy F.
