Arboviruses and symbiotic viruses cooperatively hijack insect sperm-specific proteins for paternal transmission
Arboviruses and symbiotic viruses can be paternally transmitted by male insects to their offspring, but the mechanism remains largely unknown. Here, the authors identify the sperm-specific serpin protein HongrES1 of the leafhopper Recilia dorsalis as a mediator of paternal transmission of the reovir...

description | Arboviruses and symbiotic viruses can be paternally transmitted by male insects to their offspring, but the mechanism remains largely unknown. Here, the authors identify the sperm-specific serpin protein HongrES1 of the leafhopper Recilia dorsalis as a mediator of paternal transmission of the reovirus rice gall dwarf virus and of a previously undescribed symbiotic virus of the Virgaviridae family, Recilia dorsalis filamentous virus, via direct binding of virions to leafhopper sperm surfaces and subsequent paternal transmission via interaction with both viral capsid proteins. |
