The E2 glycoprotein holds key residues for Mayaro virus adaptation to the urban Aedes aegypti mosquito

F. Roesch, C. Cereghino, L. Carrau, A. Hardy, H. Ribeiro-Filho, A. Henrion Lacritick, C. Koh, J. Marano, T. A. Bates, P. Rai, C. Chuong, S. Akter, T. Vallet, H. Blanc, T. Elliot, , J. Weger-Lucarelli

This paper identifies a mutation in the E2 glycoprotein of Mayaro virus that enhances transmission in Aedes aegypti but reduces replication in human cells, suggesting a trade-off in host adaptation.
