Abstract

Abstract Gene Model for Insulin-like peptide 4 ( Ilp4) in the D. simulans DsimGB2 assembly (GCA_000754195.3). The characterization of this ortholog was carried out as part of a larger, ongoing dataset designed to explore the evolution of the insulin/insulin-like growth factor signaling (IIS) pathway across the genus Drosophila , utilizing the Genomics Education Partnership gene annotation protocol within Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences.
