🧵Excited to share my first author preprint detailing much of my dissertation work! Here we used gene editing to retrace the horizontal transfer of a bacterial gene that now encodes an anti-parasitoid toxin in Drosophila: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… /1


So excited to have this ⚡️electrifying⚡️ story published! Congratulations to lead author Dinesh (@electro_microbe) & collaborators! @lab_sje Check out the article to learn about the roles of MmcA in methanogenic electron transport: nature.com/articles/s4146…
