Characterization of the Anopheles dirus salivary gland transcriptome. Differential expression analysis revealed up-regulation of 23 genes with known functions in mosquito immune factors, metabolism, apoptosis inhibition, structural, and olfactory proteins along with 28 genes down-regulated with functions as solute transporters, protein synthesis, salivary gland enzymes, and DNA repair (averaged infected vs average uninfected, FPKM ≥ 20, P ≤ 0.05).
