Heritable symbiont producing nonribosomal peptide confers extreme heat sensitivity and antifungal protection on its host | PNAS
Insects frequently form associations with maternally transmitted symbiotic bacteria.
This transmission mode ensures that symbiont-conferred effects...
It turns out, this symbiotic bacterium highly expresses a horizontally acquired NRPS operon, resulting in the production of a small, antifungal molecule.
Grateful to have worked on a fun project with @nancy-moran.bsky.social
The results are a bit more complicated:
