Snake venoms are complex protein mixtures with different biological activities that can act in both their preys and human victims. Many of these proteins play a role in prey capture and in the digestive process of these animals. It is known that some snakes are resistant to the toxicity of their own...

Snake venom inhibitors have been studied for over a century. Among them are the plasma proteins of some mammals and of non-venomous and venomous snakes, which have the ability to promote resistance to the venom. These proteins have aroused biotechnological interest, as they are an excellent alternat...

Bothrops moojeni has a wide distribution in Brazil and represents a serious medical concern at some localities. Previous works reported that the manifestations of snakebites caused by B. moojeni juveniles were mainly related to coagulation, while those caused by adults had more prominent local damag...

The venom color variation of C. d. terrificus (Cdt) is attributed to the presence of the toxin LAAO. However, the driving mechanisms of such variability have not been studied and identified so far. During the venom milking routine at Butantan Institute, we have noticed that most of the venoms of cap...

Antivenoms are the only effective treatment for snakebite envenomation and have saved countless lives over more than a century. Despite its value, antivenoms often present risks of adverse reactions. Current formulations contain a substantial fraction of non-specific antibodies and serum proteins th...

Acanthoscurria juruenicola is an Amazonian tarantula spider described for the first time a century ago. Specimens of both genders are similar in size and in most morphological aspects, but ecological behavior and their venom composition remained unknown to date. Here we present the trascriptomics, p...

Peptides function as signaling molecules in species as diverse as humans and yeast. Mass spectrometry-based peptidomics techniques provide a relatively unbiased method to assess the peptidome of biological samples. In the present study, we used a quantitative peptidomic technique to characterize the...
