The Dual α-Amidation System in Scorpion Venom Glands
Toxins, 2019 Many peptides in scorpion venoms are amidated at their C-termini. This post-translational modification is paramount for the correct biological function of ion channel toxins and antimicrobial peptides, among others.

Mood Selection in the Old Northumbrian Gloss to Durham MS A.iv.19
Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.Abstract The aim of this article is to examine the use of the subjunctive in the 10th‐century Old Northumbrian gloss to Durham, MS.A.iv.19. We assess whether there is evidence for a weakening of the indicative/subjunctive opposition, as has been argued for the earlier gloss to the Lindisfarne Gospels, which was the work of the same glossator, Aldred of

The myth of scorpion suicide: are scorpions insensitive to their own venom? [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1998 ABSTRACT The resistance of the scorpion Androctonus australis to its own venom, as well as to the venom of other species, was investigated. A comparison of the electrical and pharmacological properties of muscle and nerve fibres from Androctonus australis with those from the crayfish Procambarus clarkii enabled us to understand the lack ...

Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...
