Aedes aegyptiuses RNA interference in defense against Sindbis virus infection (2008)

Campbell, Corey L, Keene, Kimberly M, Brackney, Douglas E, Olson, Ken E, Blair, Carol D, Wilusz, Jeffrey, ...

Abstract Background RNA interference (RNAi) is an important anti-viral defense mechanism. The Aedes aegypti genome encodes RNAi component orthologs, however, most populations of this mosquito are...

RNA interference acts as a natural antiviral response to O'nyong-nyong virus (Alphavirus; Togaviridae) infection of Anopheles gambiae

Keene, Kimberly M., Foy, Brian D., Sanchez-Vargas, Irma, Beaty, Barry J., Blair, Carol D., Olson, Ken E.

RNA interference (RNAi) is triggered in eukaryotic organisms by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), and it destroys any mRNA that has sequence identity with the dsRNA trigger. The RNAi pathway in Anopheles...
