| Research Abstract |
We have successfully expressed vaccine antigens in the salivary glands of anopheline mosquitoes using the salivary gland-specific promoter. We observed that the transgenic mosquitoes released saliva containing the vaccine antigen through their proboscis. We made another transgenic mosquito expressing anti-malaria antibody in the salivary glands. The transgenic mosquito strongly impaired malaria transmission from mosquito to host.
