Functional analysis of AeSCP-2 using gene expression knockdown in the yellow fever mosquito, Aedes aegypti.

Insect molecular biology - 1 Jun 2005

Blitzer E J, Vyazunova I, Lan Q

Abstract excerpt

The effect of gene expression knockdown was used to study the function of the sterol carrier protein-2 (AeSCP-2) in the yellow fever mosquito, Aedes aegypti. Injection of small double stranded AeSCP-2 RNAs into mosquito larvae resulted in the knockdown of gene products. The lack of AeSCP-2 in larvae coincided with a reduction in accumulated cholesterol in pupae, supporting the hypothesis that AeSCP-2 may be...
