General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function In Spiroplasma-containing Drosophila melanogaster, parasitic wasp ribosomes show abundant site-specific depurination in the alpha-sarcin/ricin loop of the 28S rRNA, with depurination occurring soon after wasp eggs hatch inside fly larvae. The pupal ectoparasitic wasp, Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae, escapes protection by Spiroplasma poulsonii, and its ribosomes do not show high levels of depurination. Drosophila melanogaster host ribosomes show little evidence of targeting by Spiroplasma poulsonii ribosome-inactivating proteins Spiroplasma poulsonii
