I'm most excited about exploring what these Drosophila proteins mean for Wolbachia symbiosis and biology! 3/3

Wolbachia harbor SOOOO many ankyrin repeat proteins - sometimes upwards of 80 in a 1Mb genome! What could these proteins be doing for the microbe? For years, the community has assumed they might be secreted effectors and in this study, we use Drosophila + yeast to identify host targets. 1/2

Yes - this would be perfect for MRA
