Whole genome screen reveals a novel relationship between <i>Wolbachia</i> levels and <i>Drosophila</i> host translation

2018-07-30

Abstract excerpt

Wolbachia is an intracellular bacterium that infects a remarkable range of insect hosts. Insects such as mosquitos act as vectors for many devastating human viruses such as Dengue, West Nile, and Zika. Remarkably, Wolbachia infection provides insect hosts with resistance to many arboviruses thereby rendering the insects ineffective as vectors. To utilize Wolbachia effectively as a tool against vector-borne virus...
