Maltase 1 regulates DENV2 infection and life history in Aedes aegypti

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Our study employed CRISPR/Cas9 to generate a MAL1 knockout strain of Aedes aegypti, demonstrating that the absence of MAL1 significantly suppresses DENV2 replication in the midgut and impairs viral transmission. The mutation also altered life‐history (hatching/pupation/emerging rates and sex‐specific survival), identifying MAL1 as a novel target for ...
