In a major international effort,\n \n Arensburger\n et al.<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:bold>\n (p.\n 86<\/jats:related-article>\n ) uncovered divergences in the\n C. quinquefasciatus<\/jats:italic>\n genome compared with the representatives of the other two genera\n Aedes aegypti<\/jats:italic>\n and\n Anopheles gambiae<\/jats:italic>\n . The main difference noted is the expansion of numbers of genes, particularly for immunity, oxidoreductive functions, and digestive enzymes, which may reflect specific aspects of the\n Culex<\/jats:italic>\n life cycle.\n \n Bartholomay\n et al.<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:bold>\n (p.\n 88<\/jats:related-article>\n ) explored infection-response genes in\n Culex<\/jats:italic>\n in more depth and uncovered 500 immune response-related genes, similar to the numbers seen in\n Aedes<\/jats:italic>\n , but fewer than seen in\n Anopheles<\/jats:italic>\n or the fruit fly\n Drosophila melanogaster<\/jats:italic>\n . The higher numbers of genes were attributed partly to expansions in those encoding serpins, C-type lectins, and fibrinogen-related proteins, consistent with greater immune surveillance and associated signaling needed to monitor the dangers of breeding in polluted, urbanized environments. Transcriptome analysis confirmed that inoculation with unfamiliar bacteria prompted strong immune responses in\n Culex<\/jats:italic>\n . The worm and virus pathogens that the mosquitoes transmit naturally provoked little immune activation, however, suggesting that tolerance has evolved to any damage caused by replication of the pathogens in the insects.\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1126\/science.1191864","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,9,30]],"date-time":"2010-09-30T18:40:29Z","timestamp":1285872029000},"page":"86-88","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":437,"title":["Sequencing of\n Culex quinquefasciatus<\/i>\n Establishes a Platform for Mosquito Comparative Genomics"],"prefix":"10.1126","volume":"330","author":[{"given":"Peter","family":"Arensburger","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Disease Vector Research, University of California Riverside, Riverside, CA 92521, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Karine","family":"Megy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, Hinxton, Cambridge CB10 1SD, UK."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Robert M.","family":"Waterhouse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Geneva Medical School, 1 rue Michel-Servet, 1211 Geneva, Switzerland."},{"name":"Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics, 1 rue Michel-Servet, 1211 Geneva, Switzerland."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jenica","family":"Abrudan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paolo","family":"Amedeo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"J.
