The development of snake antivenoms more than a century ago should have heralded
effective treatment of the scourge of snakebite envenoming in impoverished, mostly rural …

This article covers the application of proteomic tools ('venomics','antivenomics' and 'venom
phenoty**') to study the composition and natural history of snake venoms, and the cross …

A deep understanding of the composition of venoms and of the principles governing the
evolution of venomous systems is of applied importance for exploring the enormous …

The application of proteomic tools to the study of snake venoms has led to an impressive
growth in the knowledge about their composition (venomics), immunogenicity …

The study of the proteome (proteomics), which includes the dynamics of protein expression,
regulation, interactions and its function, has played a less prominent role in evolutionary and …
