Nuclease proteins CifA and CifB promote spermatid DNA damage associated with symbiont-induced cytoplasmic incompatibility

R. Kaur, J. D. Shropshire, B. A. Leigh, S. R. Bordenstein

The paper shows CifA and CifB nuclease activities cause DNA damage in spermatids, contributing to cytoplasmic incompatibility in Drosophila.

Male age and Wolbachia dynamics: Investigating how fast and why bacterial densities and cytoplasmic incompatibility strengths vary

J. D. Shropshire, E. Hamant, B. S. Cooper

The paper investigates how quickly and why Wolbachia-induced cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) strength declines with male age in two Drosophila species, finding different patterns in Wolbachia density and CI gene expression.

Evolution-guided mutagenesis of the cytoplasmic incompatibility proteins: Identifying CifAs complex functional repertoire and new essential regions in CifB

J. D. Shropshire, M. Kalra, S. R. Bordenstein

This study uses evolution-guided mutagenesis to identify functional regions in CifA and CifB proteins involved in cytoplasmic incompatibility and rescue in Wolbachia.
