Degradomics for large‐scale mechanistic insights on proteases and proteolysis in human health
Proteolysis has an important role in human disease but remains relatively unexplored. Degradomics, the uncovering of proteolysis in tissues, cells, and proteins, uses mass spectrometry‐based terminomics to identify protein termini occurring therein (forward degradomics) and to define the actions of proteases (reverse degradomics).

Abstract Lys49 secreted phospholipase A2‐like proteins (sPLA2s) are major myotoxins in viperid snake venoms, causing rapid muscle damage in envenomation. Beyond their clinical relevance, these small non‐catalytic proteins provide a model to study how quaternary structure and conformational dynamics enable catalysis‐independent membrane disruption ...

Polymeric Nanoparticles for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Snakebite
Snakebite envenomation affects between 1.8 and 5.5 million people annually, many of whom suffer disabilities or even death. Current antivenoms are composed of plasma‐derived antibodies. However, there remains an underexplored opportunity to utilise polymer‐based nanoparticles.
