Abstract Background The Anopheles gambiae heat shock cognate gene hsc70B encodes a constitutively expressed protein in the hsp70 family and it functions as a molecular chaperone for protein folding. However the expression of hsc70B can be further induced by certain stimuli such as heat shock and infection. We previously demonstrated that the An. gambiae hsc70B is induced during o nyong-nyong virus ONNV infection and subsequently suppresses ONNV replication in the mosquito. To further characterize the inducibility of hsc70B by ONNV infection in An. gambiae we cloned a 2.6-kb region immediately 5 upstream of the starting codon of hsc70B into a luciferase reporter vector .
