P53-mediated rapid induction of apoptosis conveys resistance to viral infection in Drosophila melanogaster.
Arthropod-borne pathogens account for millions of deaths each year. Understanding the genetic mechanisms controlling vector susceptibility to pathogens has profound implications for developing novel strategies for controlling insect-transmitted infectious diseases. The fact that many viruses carry g...
