The result indicated that luciferase activity driven by Drosomycin promoter can be triggered by CD4-Toll chimera. The activity was decreased in the presence of gp120 of HIV. The finding demonstrates the possibility that GE mosquito created by our project could be applied to detect HIV virus in infected human blood.

Mosquito Toll-Amp signaling plays an important roll in response to and regulating blood infectious pathogens.

Second, we designed a HIV viral blood testing kit consisting of BioBrick parts of Ac5 promoter, CD4 extracellular domain, Drosophila transmembrane and intracellular domains, and poly A, as well as Ac5-GFP-polyA as a positive expression control.
