UniProtKB accession:  Q95NY5

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Modulates blood feeding of female mosquitoes on vertebrate species by binding and sequestering different mediators involved in the host response (By similarity). Binds leukotriene C4, leukotriene D4, leukotriene E4 and stable analogs of thromboxane A2, U-46619 and carbocyclic TXA2 (PubMed:21152418). Binds weakly prostaglandins: PGD2, PGE2 and PGF2alpha (PubMed:21152418). Does not bind leukotriene B4, biogenic amines, ADP, platelet activating phospholipid derivative PAF and arachidonic acid (PubMed:21152418). Inhibits agonist-induced smooth muscle contraction (PubMed:21152418). Inhibits platelet aggregation induced by low concentrations of collagen in thromboxane A2-dependent manner (PubMed:21152418).
