ProteomicsAsp caterpillar (Megalopyge ssp.) venom proteomes
Larvae of the genus Megalopyge (Lepidoptera: Zygaenoidea: Megalopygidae), called asp or puss caterpillars, produce defensive venoms that cause severe acute pain. Here, we present the anatomy, chemistry, and mode of action of the venom systems of caterpillars of two megalopygid species, the Southern ...

ProteomicsConus striatus Venom Duct LC/MS/MS
The venom of cone snails is highly variable both between and within species, as well as spatially along the venom duct. However, defferences of defensive and predatory venoms in "hook-and-line" fish hunting clades and their venom duct origins has not been investigated. In this study a combination of...

ProteomicsCombined proteomic and functional analysis reveals rich sources of protein diversity in skin mucus and venom from Scorpaena plumieri fish
This study shed light on the protein profile of the venomous extract and the skin mucus from S. plumieri, potentially contributing with fundamental information for future basic research, and even – through a better understanding of venomous fish toxinology – aiding in the search for new clinical str...

TranscriptomicsDe Novo Transcriptome Sequencing for Tetramorium bicarinatum: The first comprehensive venom gland transcriptome analysis from an ant species.
In order to provide a global insight on the transcripts expressed in the venom gland of the Brazilian ant species Tetramorium bicarinatum and to unveil the potential of its products, high-throughput expressed sequence tags were generated using Illumina paired-end sequencing technology. A total of 21...

ProteomicsDisruption of Glucose Homeostasis in Prey: Combinatorial Use of Weaponized Mimetics of Somatostatin and Insulin by a Fish-Hunting Cone Snail
Venomous animals have evolved diverse molecular mechanisms to incapacitate prey and defend against predators. The majority of venom components characterized to date disrupt the nervous, locomotor, and cardiovascular system or causes tissue damage and degradation. The discovery that certain species o...

ProteomicsConus magus venom gland proteomics
Marine cone snails have attracted researchers from all disciplines but early life stages have received limited attention due to difficulties accessing or rearing juvenile specimens. Here, we document the culture of Conus magus from eggs through metamorphosis to reveal dramatic shifts in predatory fe...
