AePUb promoter length modulates gene expression in Aedes aegypti

AbstractMolecular tools for modulating transgene expression inAedes aegyptiare few. Here we demonstrate that adjustments to theAePUbpromoter length can alter expression levels of two reporter proteins inAe. aegypticell culture and in mosquitoes. This provides a simple means for increasing or decreasing expression of a gene of interest and easy translation from cells to whole insects.
