There have been many attempts to identify common biophysical properties which
differentiate allergens from their non-immunogenic counterparts. This review will focus on …

Mosquitoes transmit numerous pathogens, but large gaps remain in our understanding of
their physiology. To facilitate explorations of mosquito biology, we have created Aegypti …

Mosquito‐borne diseases (MBDs) annually kill nearly half a million people. Due to the lack
of effective vaccines and drugs on most MBDs, disease prevention relies primarily on …

Poly-and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a family of chemicals that have been used in
a wide range of commercial products. While their use is declining, the prevalence of PFAS …

Mosquito saliva proteins modulate the human immune and hemostatic systems and control
mosquito-borne pathogenic infections. One mechanism through which mosquito proteins …

Introduction Pet lipocalins are respiratory allergens with a central hydrophobic ligand-
binding cavity called a calyx. Molecules carried in the calyx by allergens are suggested to …

The cockroach allergen Bla g 1 encloses an exceptionally large hydrophobic cavity, which
allows it to bind and deliver unsaturated fatty acid ligands. Bla g 1-mediated delivery of …

Malaria is a mosquito‐borne disease caused by protozoans of the genus Plasmodium that
affects both humans and wildlife. The fitness consequences of infections by avian malaria …

The mosquito protein AEG12 encompasses a large (~ 3800 Å3) hydrophobic cavity which
binds and delivers unsaturated fatty acids into biological membranes, allowing it to lyse cells …

Simple Summary Non-model insect species such as B. rossius suffer from a profound gap of
knowledge regarding the temporal progression of physiological responses following the …
