Reduced expression of CDP-DAG synthase changes lipid composition and leads to male sterility in Drosophila

Drosophila spermatogenesis is an ideal system to study the effects of changes in lipid composition, because spermatid elongation and individualization requires extensive membrane biosynthesis and remodelling. The bulk of transcriptional activity is completed with the entry of cysts into meiotic divi...
