Affinity chromatography was performed with DENV-2, -1, or -4.
**Bands of interest were excised at the molecular weight of interest (57 or 67 kDa).
***Total extract of MGs from Ae. aegypti mosquitoes strain DMEB was separated by SDS-PAGE and the band with apparent molecular weight of 67 kDa was excised for a further analysis.
****Superscript number in the name of the protein indicates the number of the experiment.
