These bioactive peptides have been found in the salivary glands of the Yellowfever mosquito Aedes aegypti (Champagne and Ribeiro, 1994).
Sialokinin I is NTGDKFYGLMamide
Sialokinin II is DTGDKFYGLMamide
These peptides resemble mammalian tachykinins and display the full spectrum of activity of mammalian tachykinins (for overview see: Severini et al, 2002).
