Validation of a heat-inducible <i>Ixodes scapularis</i> HSP70 promoter and developing a tick-specific 3xP3 promoter sequence in ISE6 cells
2023-11-29
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Ixodes scapularis is an important vector of many pathogens, including the causative agent of Lyme disease, tick-borne encephalitis, and anaplasmosis. The study of gene function in I. scapularis and other ticks has been hampered by the lack of genetic tools, such as an inducible promoter to permit temporal control over transgenes encoding protein or double-stranded RNA expression. Studies of vec...
