Project description:Aedes aegypti (L.) is the primary vector of many emerging arboviruses. Insecticide resistance among mosquito populations is a consequence of the application of insecticides for mosquito control. We used RNA-sequencing to compare transcriptomes between permethrin resistant and susceptible strains of Florida Ae. aegypti in response to Zika virus infection. A total of 2,459 transcripts were expressed at significantly different levels between resistant and susceptible Ae. aegypti. Gene ontology analysis placed these genes into 7 categories of biological processes. The 863 transcripts were expressed at significantly different levels between two strains (up/down regulated) more than 2-fold. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis validated Zika-infected response, and suggested a highly overexpressed P450, with AAEL014617 and AAEL006798 as potential candidates for the molecular mechanism of permethrin resistance in Ae. aegypti. Our findings indicated that most detoxification enzymes and immune system enzymes altered their gene expression between the two strains of Ae. aegypti in response to Zika virus infection. Understanding the interactions of arboviruses with resistant mosquito vectors at the molecular level allows for the possible development of new approaches in mitigating arbovirus transmission. This information sheds light on Zika-induced changes in the insecticide resistance of Ae. aegypti with implications for mosquito control strategies.

Project description:Background: The piRNA pathway has been shown in model organisms to be involved in silencing of transposons thereby providing genome stability. In D. melanogaster the majority of piRNAs map to these sequences. The medically important mosquito species Aedes aegypti has a large genome size, a high transposon load which includes Miniature Inverted repeat Transposable Elements (MITES) and an expansion of the piRNA biogenesis genes. Studies of transgenic lines of Ae. aegypti have indicated that introduced transposons are poorly remobilized and we sought to explore the basis of this. We wished to analyze the piRNA profile of Ae. aegypti and thereby determine if it be responsible for transposon silencing in this mosquito. Results: Estimated piRNA sequence diversity was comparable between Ae. aegypti and D. melanogaster, but surprisingly only 19% of mosquito piRNAs mapped to transposons compared to 51% for D. melanogaster. Ae. aegypti piRNA clusters made up a larger percentage of the total genome than those of D. melanogaster but did not contain significantly higher percentages of transposon derived sequences than other regions of the genome. Ae. aegypti contains a number of protein coding genes that may be sources of piRNA biogenesis with two, traffic jam and maelstrom, implicated in this process in model organisms. Several genes of viral origin were also targeted by piRNAs. Examination of six mosquito libraries that had previously been transformed with transposon derived sequence revealed that new piRNA sequences had been generated to the transformed sequences, suggesting that they may have stimulated a transposon inactivation mechanism. Conclusions: Ae. aegypti has a large piRNA complement that maps to transposons but primarily gene sequences, including many viral-derived sequences. This, together the more uniform distribution of piRNA clusters throughout its genome suggest that some aspects of the piRNA system differ between Ae. aegypti and D. melanogaster.

Project description:We have generated transgenic Ae. aegypti that express a ZIKV-specific inverted repeat RNA intended to trigger the mosquito siRNA anti-viral immune pathway. To confirm that the transgene is expressed and processed, we performed small RNA sequencing on both Higgs White Eye (HWE) & anti-NS3/4A-ZIKV transgenic Ae. aegypti 24 hours post-bloodmeal

Project description:Zika is a vector-borne disease caused by an arbovirus (ZIKV) and overwhelmingly transmitted by Ae. aegypti. This disease is linked to adverse fetal outcomes, mostly microcephaly in newborns, and other clinical aspects such as acute febrile illness and neurologic complications, for example Guillain-Barré syndrome. One of the actual most promising strategies to mitigate arbovirus transmission involves releasing Ae. aegypti mosquitoes carrying the maternally inherited endosymbiont bacteria Wolbachia pipientis. The presence of Wolbachia is associated with a reduced susceptibility to arboviruses and a fitness cost in mosquito life-history traits as fecundity and fertility. However, the mechanisms by which Wolbachia influences metabolic pathways leading to differences in egg production remains poorly known. In order to investigate the impact of co-infections on the reproductive tract of the mosquito, we applied a quantitative proteomic strategy based on an isobaric labeling to investigate the influence of Wolbachia wMel and ZIKV infection in Ae. aegypti ovaries. For what we know, this is the most complete proteome of Ae. aegypti ovaries reported so far, with a total of 3913 proteins identified. We were able to quantify a total of 1044 Wolbachia proteins in complex sample tissue of Ae. aegypti ovary employing mass spectrometry-based quantitative methods. Furthermore, we describe and discuss proteins and pathways altered in Ae. aegypti during ZIKV infections, Wolbachia infections, co-infection Wolbachia/ZIKV, and compared with no infection, focusing on immune and reproductive aspects of Ae. aegypti.

Project description:Aedes aegypti is a major vector for dengue, chikungunya and yellow fever. Though salivary gland plays a crucial role in transmission of virus and vector life cycle, there is no global and unbiased published report on salivary gland proteome of Ae. aegypti. In this study, we have carried out mass spectrometry based proteomic analysis of salivary gland from adult female Ae. aegypti mosquitoes. By fractionating the proteins isolated from salivary gland on SDS-PAGE and analyzing the in-gel digested bands on high resolution mass spectrometry, we identified 1,205 proteins. This is by far the largest catalogue of salivary gland proteome of Ae. aegypti. These proteins were then assigned molecular functions and biological processes. Several immunity related pathways were found to be enriched in salivary gland. In addition, subset of proteins was predicted to secretory in nature and may play an important role during blood feeding. This study provides a useful resource of proteins expressed in salivary gland of Ae. aegypti female mosquitoes and will aid in biomedical research focused on development of transmission blocking vaccine.
