Wolbachia bacteria are endosymbiotic partners of many animal species, in which they
behave as either parasites (in arthropod hosts) or mutualists (in nematode hosts). What …

The discovery of an extraordinarily high level of mobile elements in the genome of
Wolbachia, a widespread arthropod and nematode endosymbiont, suggests that this …

The complete sequence of the 1,267,782 bp genome of Wolbachia pipientis w Mel, an
obligate intracellular bacteria of Drosophila melanogaster, has been determined …

In animals, egg activation triggers a cascade of posttranscriptional events that act on
maternally synthesized RNAs. We show that, in Drosophila, the PAN GU (PNG) kinase sits …

We describe in this report a novel class of mutants that should facilitate the identification of
genes required for progression through the mitotic cell cycle during seed development in …

The E2F transcription factor and retinoblastoma protein control cell-cycle progression and
DNA replication during S phase. Mutations in the Drosophila dE2F1 and dDP genes affect …

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents the most lethal subtype of breast cancer
due to its aggressive clinical features and the lack of effective therapeutic targets. To identify …

Wolbachia is a common maternally inherited bacterial symbiont able to induce crossing
sterilities known as cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) in insects,. Wolbachia-modified sperm …

We have identified a gene encoding a novel protein that is transcriptionally regulated by the
Notch signaling pathway in mammals. This gene, named Nrarp (for Notch-regulated ankyrin …

Legionella pneumophila is a ubiquitous organism in the aquatic environment where it is
capable of invasion and intracellular proliferation within various protozoan species and is …
