CC -!- FUNCTION: Tick salivary platelet aggregation inhibitor that plays an
CC important part in the anti-hemostatic strategy of ticks. Acts by
CC scavenging thromboxane A2 (TXA2), a potent inducer of platelet
CC aggregation and blood vessel constriction (PubMed:8449906,
CC PubMed:18694828). As a consequence, is a specific inhibitor of
CC collagen-induced platelet aggregation (PubMed:8449907, PubMed:8449906).
CC In addition, it also acts as a potent inhibitor of TXA2-mediated
CC vasoconstriction (PubMed:18694828). Has also been found to bind
CC leukotriene B4 (LTB4) (which also derives from arachidonic acid, as
CC TXA2) with affinities in the nanomolar range (PubMed:18694828). It does
CC not interact with complement protein C5 (PubMed:18694828).

CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000305|PubMed:18694828}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in salivary glands.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:18694828}.
CC -!- PTM: The N-terminus is blocked. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:8449906}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- CAUTION: There are 10 AA differences between the cDNA deduced sequence
CC and the determined protein sequence. These differences are not
CC indicated in the paper. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:8449907}.
