Wolbachia Utilizes Host Microtubules and Dynein for Anterior Localization in the Drosophila Oocyte

10 Oct 2005

Abstract excerpt

To investigate the role of the host cytoskeleton in the maternal transmission of the endoparasitic bacteria Wolbachia, we have characterized their distribution in the female germ line of Drosophila melanogaster. In the germarium, Wolbachia are distributed to all germ cells of the cyst, establishing an early infection in the cell destined to become the oocyte. During mid-oogenesis, Wolbachia exhibit a distinct...
