Heme-induced genes facilitate endosymbiont ( <i>Sodalis glossinidius</i> ) colonization of the tsetse fly ( <i>Glossina morsitans</i> ) midgut
2022-09-22
Abstract excerpt
Tsetse flies ( Glossina spp.) feed exclusively on vertebrate blood. After a blood meal, the enteric endosymbiont Sodalis glossinidius is exposed to various environmental stressors including high levels of heme. To investigate how S. glossinidius morsitans (Sgm , the Sodalis subspecies that resides within the gut of G. morsitans ) tolerates the heme-induced oxidative environment of tsetse’s midgut, we used RNA...
