Evidence that the 45-kD Glycoprotein, Part of a Putative Dengue Virus Receptor Complex in the Mosquito Cell Line C6/36, Is a Heat-Shock–Related Protein

Abstract excerpt
Dengue virus (DENV) is transmitted to humans by mosquitoes of the genus Aedes. Although several molecules have been described as part of DENV receptor complex in mosquito cells, none of them have been identified. Our group characterized two glycoproteins (40 and 45 kD) as part of the DENV receptor complex in C6/36 cells. Because identification of the mosquito cell receptor has been unsuccessful and some cell...
