Purification of 57kDa Hyaluronidase from the venom of Conus betulinus (Linnaeus, 1758)
Abstract The enzyme hyaluronidase cleaves the substrate hyaluronic acid. In the study, hyaluronidase was isolated from the venom gland of C. betulinus and characterised using SDS-PAGE, FTIR, and HPLC. The protein content of crude venom is approximately 4mg/ml, whereas purification with Sepacryl S-100 yielded 0.04mg/ml protein with 0.463TRU/mg ...

Prey specificity of predatory venoms
ABSTRACT Venom represents a key adaptation of many venomous predators, allowing them to immobilise prey quickly through chemical rather than physical warfare. Evolutionary arms races between prey and a predator are believed to be the main factor influencing the potency and composition of predatory venoms.

Identification of neuropeptide Y-like conopeptides from the venom of Conus betulinus.
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a ubiquitous endocrine neuropeptide found in vertebrate and invertebrate. In our present work, two NPY-like exocrine conopeptides (designated as cono-NPYs) were first identified in the venom of cone snails. Both cono-NPYs showed sequence characteristics of invertebrate NPYs, suggesting that some exocrine venom peptides are ...
