bioRxiv
. 2024 Dec;
PMID: 39713442
is the most widespread animal-associated intracellular microbe, living within the cells of over half of insect species. Since they can suppress pathogen replication and spread rapidly through insect populations, is...

Science
. 2024 Mar;
383(6687):1111-1117.
PMID: 38452081
The extent to which prophage proteins interact with eukaryotic macromolecules is largely unknown. In this work, we show that cytoplasmic incompatibility factor A (CifA) and B (CifB) proteins, encoded by...

Shropshire J, Conner W, Vanderpool D, Hoffmann A, Turelli M, Cooper B
bioRxiv
. 2023 Dec;
PMID: 38105949
About half of all insect species carry maternally inherited alphaproteobacteria, making the most common endosymbionts known in nature. Often spread to high frequencies within populations due to cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI),...

Shropshire J, Hamant E, Conner W, Cooper B
PNAS Nexus
. 2022 Aug;
1(3):pgac099.
PMID: 35967981
Divergent hosts often associate with intracellular microbes that influence their fitness. Maternally transmitted bacteria are the most common of these endosymbionts, due largely to cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) that kills uninfected...

Hague M, Shropshire J, Caldwell C, Statz J, Stanek K, Conner W, et al.
Curr Biol
. 2021 Dec;
32(4):878-888.e8.
PMID: 34919808
Endosymbioses influence host physiology, reproduction, and fitness, but these relationships require efficient microbe transmission between host generations to persist. Maternally transmitted Wolbachia are the most common known endosymbionts, but their...

mBio
. 2021 Dec;
12(6):e0299821.
PMID: 34903056
Endosymbionts can influence host reproduction and fitness to favor their maternal transmission. For example, endosymbiotic bacteria often cause cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) that kills uninfected embryos fertilized by -modified sperm. Infected...

Kaur R, Shropshire J, Cross K, Leigh B, Mansueto A, Stewart V, et al.
Cell Host Microbe
. 2021 May;
29(6):879-893.
PMID: 33945798
The most widespread intracellular bacteria in the animal kingdom are maternally inherited endosymbionts of the genus Wolbachia. Their prevalence in arthropods and nematodes worldwide and stunning arsenal of parasitic and...

Shropshire J, Rosenberg R, Bordenstein S
Genetics
. 2021 Mar;
217(1):1-13.
PMID: 33683351
Wolbachia are maternally transmitted, intracellular bacteria that can often selfishly spread through arthropod populations via cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI). CI manifests as embryonic death when males expressing prophage WO genes cifA...

Elife
. 2020 Sep;

PMID: 32975515
Cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) is the most common symbiont-induced reproductive manipulation. Specifically, symbiont-induced sperm modifications cause catastrophic mitotic defects in the fertilized embryo and ensuing lethality in crosses between symbiotic males...

PLoS Pathog
. 2020 Aug;
16(8):e1008794.
PMID: 32813725
Wolbachia are the world's most common, maternally-inherited, arthropod endosymbionts. Their worldwide distribution is due, in part, to a selfish drive system termed cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) that confers a relative fitness...
