Effect of Spiroplasma infection on the mating behavior of Glossina fuscipes fuscipes
Tsetse flies are insects of significant public health and zoonotic importance as they are the main vectors of African trypanosomes. To date, an effective vaccine is unavailable and efforts to limit the spread of the disease primarily rely on controlling ...

Spiroplasmas contain long flexuous fibrils composed of a protein, molecular weight 55,000, which is specific to Spiroplasma and is highly conserved among different species. The protein cannot be detected in other wall-less prokaryotes reported to contain actin-like proteins and is unrelated to eukaryotic cytoskeletal components.
