Homologs of Human Dengue-Resistance Genes, <i>FKBP1B</i> and <i>ATCAY</i>, Confer Antiviral Resistance in <i>Aedes aegypti</i> Mosquitoes

Dengue virus (DENV) is transmitted by mosquitoes and is a major public health concern. The study of innate mosquito defense mechanisms against DENV have revealed crucial roles for the Toll, Imd, JAK-STAT, and RNAi pathways in mediating DENV in the mosquito. Often overlooked in such studies is the ro...
