Macrodomain catalytic activity modulates Chikungunya virus dissemination and transmission potential in <i>Aedes</i> mosquitoes
2025-10-09
Abstract excerpt
Viral macrodomains are promising antiviral targets that counteract host ADP-ribosylation-mediated antiviral responses in mammals. However, their role in dual-host viruses within the mosquito vector remains largely unknown. Here, we investigated the role of the Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) nsP3 macrodomain catalytic activity by mutating the active-site asparagine 24 (N24). N24 mutant viruses rapidly selected for compe...
