Gene editing in the Chagas disease vector <i>Rhodnius prolixus</i> by Cas9-mediated ReMOT Control
2023-08-15
Abstract excerpt
Rhodnius prolixus is currently the model vector of choice for studying Chagas disease transmission, a debilitating disease caused by Trypanosoma cruzi parasites. Despite the broad use of double-stranded RNA interference for the knockdown of gene function in R. prolixus , transgenesis and gene editing protocols are still lacking. Here we tested Receptor-Mediated Ovary Transduction of Cargo (ReMOT Control) and dir...
