Aag-2 Cell Proteome Modulation in Response to Chikungunya Virus Infection.

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a single-stranded positive RNA virus that belongs to the genus and is transmitted to humans by infected and bites. In humans, CHIKV usually causes painful symptoms during acute and chronic stages of infection. Conversely, virus-vector interaction does not disturb the mosquito's fitness, allowing a persistent infection.
