Venoms comprise mixtures of peptides and proteins tailored by Natural Selection to act on
vital systems of the prey or victim. Here we review our proteomic protocols for uncoiling the …

Abstract Convulxin (CVX), a C-type lectin-like protein isolated from the venom of the snake
species, Crotalus durissus terrificus, stimulates platelet aggregation by acting as a collagen …

The Handbook of Venoms and Toxins of Reptiles offers" one-stop shop**" to all biologists,

Venoms are integrated phenotypes that evolved independently in, and are used for
predatory and defensive purposes by, a wide phylogenetic range of organisms. The same …

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 …

We report a comparative venomic and antivenomic characterization of the venoms of
newborn and adult specimens of the Central American rattlesnake, Crotalus simus, and of …

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 …

Background Understanding the processes that drive the evolution of snake venom is a topic
of great research interest in molecular and evolutionary toxinology. Recent studies suggest …

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 …
