| Dengue is a term for a group of illnesses caused by four viruses, which are extremely relevant because they can infect humans. (Dengue) The viruses are known as DENV 1, DENV 2, DENV 3, and DENV 4. The primary vector of transmission is one of two types of [http://www.cdc.gov/dengue/resources/30Jan2012/comparisondenguevectors.pdf/ mosquitos], <i>Aedes aegypti</i> and <i>Aedes albopictus</i>. Although the viruses developed in humans between 100 and 800 years ago, dengue was not a prominent illness until recently. (CDC epidemiology) <br><br>

| <br>Dengue can manifest in two forms: dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). Currently, there is no medicine to target either type of infection. (CDC FAQ) It is important to know the symptoms [http://www.cdc.gov/Dengue/symptoms/index.html/ symptoms] of dengue infection and [http://www.cdc.gov/Dengue/faqFacts/index.html/ educate] oneself about the illness. In order to design a treatment for dengue infection, it is important to understand the mechanism of infection and the structure of the dengue virus family.
