The potential for a released autosomal X-shredder becoming a driving-Y chromosome and invasively suppressing wild populations of malaria mosquitoes (2019)
Journal Article
Alcalay, Y., Fuchs, S., Galizi, R., Bernardini, F., Elaine Haghighat-Khah, R., B. Rusch, D., …Aris Papathanos, P. (2019). The potential for a released autosomal X-shredder becoming a driving-Y chromosome and invasively suppressing wild populations of malaria mosquitoes. https://doi.org/10.1101/860551

Abstract Synthetic sex-ratio distorters based on X-chromosome shredding are predicted to be more efficient than sterile males for population suppression of malaria mosquitoes using genetic control. X-chromosome shredding operates through the targeted...

Although of high priority for the development of genetic tools to control malaria-transmitting mosquitoes, only a few germline-specific regulatory regions have been characterised to date and the presence of global regulatory mechanisms, such as dosag...

Introgression of a synthetic sex ratio distortion system from Anopheles gambiae into Anopheles arabiensis. (2019)
Journal Article
Bernardini, F., Kriezis, A., Galizi, R., Nolan, T., & Crisanti, A. (2019). Introgression of a synthetic sex ratio distortion system from Anopheles gambiae into Anopheles arabiensis. Scientific reports, 5158 - ?. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-41646-8

I-PpoI is a homing endonuclease that has a high cleavage activity and specificity for a conserved sequence within the ribosomal rDNA repeats, located in a single cluster on the Anopheles gambiae X chromosome. This property has been exploited to devel... Read More about Introgression of a synthetic sex ratio distortion system from Anopheles gambiae into Anopheles arabiensis..
