This study characterizes the activity and role of Aedes aegypti chymotrypsin in blood digestion, showing its substrate specificity and the presence of a protease network, with EcR regulating its expression.

This study identifies midgut proteases in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and their role in blood meal digestion using MSP-MS, revealing shifts in proteolytic activity and substrate specificity.

The paper identifies peripheral mutations that enable promiscuous transport of quaternary ammonium antiseptics by SMR transporters, revealing that substrate preference changes through mutations outside the binding pocket.
