TL;DR: A recombinant Sindbis virus was used to transduce female Aedes aegypti with a 567-base antisense RNA targeted to the premembrane coding region of dengue type 2 (DEN-2) virus, and the transduced mosquitoes were unable to support replication of DEN-2 virus in their salivary glands and therefore were not able to transmit the virus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Green Fluorescent Protein Expressed in Living Mosquitoes—Without the Requirement of Transformation
TL;DR: A double-subgenomic Sindbis (dsSIN) virus expressing green fluorescent protein is constructed to demonstrate the potential of this protein for studying pathogen development in living arthropods and to provide a non-lethal selection method for use in transgenic arthropod research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Replication and expression of a recombinant Sindbis virus in mosquitoes
TL;DR: A recombinant Sindbis virus, TE/3'2J/ANTI‐S, containing LaCrosse virus small segment cDNA in antisense orientation was inoculated into Aedes triseriatus mosquitoes and exhibited different cellular tropisms in salivary glands of Aedes and Culex mosquitoes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Expression of Chloramphenicol Acetyltransferase in Mosquitoes and Mosquito Cells Using a Packaged Sindbis Replicon System
TL;DR: The results suggest that packaged replicon viruses can be useful for expression of heterologous genes in mosquito cells and whole mosquitoes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of expressed chloramphenicol acetyltransferase in the saliva of Culex pipiens mosquitoes
TL;DR: A double subgenomic Sindbis (dsSIN) virus and a packaged Sindbis replicon virus are used to express chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) protein in the salivary glands and saliva of transduced female Culex pipiens pipiens mosquitoes.
