摘要: The recent outbreak of Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) on several islands in the Indian Ocean and India has focused attention this reemerging highlighted need for development new tools to study vector-virus-host interactions. We have constructed characterized, cell culture, Aedes aegypti Ae. albopictus mosquitoes, infectious cDNA clones CHIKV using a isolate from La Reunion Island. Comparison growth kinetics infection rates viral strain LR2006 OPY1 (CHIKV-LR) full-length clone (CHIKV-LR ic) indicate that retained phenotypes original isolate. Infectious express green fluorescent protein (GFP) were also produced characterized culture mosquitoes. CHIKV-LR 5'GFP infected mosquitoes at similar rate full length clone. 3'GFP only rates. these authentic will enable targeted studies molecular determinants infection, pathogenesis transmission competence by
