Dengue and Zika are mosquito-borne viruses,requiring mosquito contact for infection.In a recent Cell article,Zhang et al.show that when mice and humans are infected with these viruses,skin production of the antimicrobial protein RELMa drops,allowing colonization with Bacillus spp.that generate a volatile small molecule called acetophenone,which increases mosquito seeking behavior to infected host skin.
