Wolbachia prophage DNA adenine methyltransferase genes in different Drosophila-Wolbachia associations.

Wolbachia prophage DNA adenine methyltransferase genes in different Drosophila-Wolbachia associations.

Wolbachia is an obligatory intracellular bacterium which often manipulates the reproduction of its insect and isopod hosts. In contrast, Wolbachia is an essential symbiont in filarial nematodes. Lately, Wolbachia has been implicated in genomic imprinting of host DNA through cytosine methylation. The...
