Mutations in the Drosophila gene encoding ribosomal protein S6 cause tissue overgrowth.

abstract：:The muscle LIM protein (MLP) and cofilin 2 (CFL2) are important regulators of striated myocyte function. Mutations in the corresponding genes have been directly associated with severe human cardiac and skeletal myopathies, and aberrant expression patterns have often been observed in affected muscles. Herein, we have i...
