Biology & Life Sciences Image The molecular magic of mating Sept. 11, 2024 A study led by BIO5 member Luciano Matzkin studied the reproductive tissues of female flies to see if the act of mating can cause bodily changes at a molecular level. His study uncovered that females create their own male-derived, female translated proteins after mating.
