Among these salivary proteins are the D7s, which are highly abundant and have been shown to act as scavengers of biogenic amines and eicosanoids. In this work, we performed comparative structural modeling, characterized the binding capabilities, and assessed the physiological functions of the <jats:italic>Ae. aegypti<\/jats:italic> salivary protein AeD7L2 compared to the well\u2010characterized AeD7L1. AeD7L1 and AeD7L2 show different binding affinities to several biogenic amines and biolipids involved in host hemostasis. Interestingly, AeD7L2 tightly binds U\u201046619, the stable analog of thromboxane A<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> (<jats:italic>K<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>D<\/jats:sub>\u00a0=\u00a069.4\u00a0n<jats:sc>m<\/jats:sc>), which is an important platelet aggregation mediator, while AeD7L1 shows no binding. We tested the ability of these proteins to interfere with the three branches of hemostasis: vasoconstriction, platelet aggregation, and blood coagulation. Pressure myography experiments showed these two proteins reversed isolated resistance artery vasoconstriction induced by either norepinephrine or U\u201046619. These proteins also inhibited platelet aggregation induced by low doses of collagen or U\u201046619. However, D7 long proteins did not affect blood coagulation. The different ligand specificity and affinities of AeD7L1 and AeD7L2 matched our experimental observations from studying their effects on vasoconstriction and platelet aggregation, which confirm their role in preventing host hemostasis. This work highlights the complex yet highly specific biological activities of mosquito salivary proteins and serves as another example of the sophisticated biology underlying arthropod blood feeding.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/febs.15524","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,16]],"date-time":"2020-08-16T02:47:12Z","timestamp":1597546032000},"page":"2014-2029","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Biochemical
