ProteomicsRevealing the venomous secrets of the spider’s web
Orb-weaving spiders use a highly strong, sticky and elastic web to catch their prey. These web properties alone would be enough for the entrapment of prey; however, these spiders may be hiding venomous secrets in the web, which current research is revealing. Here, we provide strong proteotranscripto...

ProteomicsThe non venomous spider Uloborus sp. (Uloboridae) midgut proteome
Spiders have distinct capture prey behaviors selected along Araneae´s evolutive history, but mainly based on the use of venom for prey paralysis. Uloboridae spiders lost the venom glands secondarily in evolution. Due to that they extensively wrap prey with silk to paralyze and begin digestion. Durin...
