description: Ornithodoros brasiliensis causes a toxicoses in vertebrate hosts (including humans) after feeding and secretion of salivary gland components. Characterization of salivary gland proteins can aid in the identification of the toxins involved in this toxicoses and assist in understanding the evolutionary significance of these toxins and their impact on host immune systems.
