Venom metalloproteinase activity and Squirrel Inhibition

open access: yes, 2016
This file includes 1440 rows of snake venom metalloproteinase activity data, where each row is defined by a unique combination of of rattlesnake (Crotalus oreganus) and a ground squirrel (Otospermophilus beecheyi).

Neurotoxins from Snake Venom [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Found within snake venoms are a variety of toxic and nontoxic proteins. The effects of snake venoms depend on all of the components of that venom. However, the lethal effects are usually related to the most potent toxins found within the venom; the two ...

Bioinformatics‐Driven Design and Evaluation of Recombinant Multi‐Epitope Immunogens Derived From Snake Venom Toxins as Potential Antivenom Candidates

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 7, Page 1403-1426, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Snakebite envenomation is a major public health concern, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income regions where access to safe and effective antivenoms is limited. Traditional antivenoms, derived from immunization with crude venom, often trigger adverse reactions and lack specificity against key venom components.

Snake Venom Metalloproteinases and Their Peptide Inhibitors from Myanmar Russell’s Viper Venom

open access: yesToxins, 2016
Russell’s viper bites are potentially fatal from severe bleeding, renal failure and capillary leakage. Snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs) are attributed to these effects.

Application of an Extracellular Matrix-Mimicking Fluorescent Polymer for the Detection of Proteolytic Venom Toxins

open access: yesToxins, 2023
The cytotoxicity caused by snake venoms is a serious medical problem that greatly contributes to the morbidity observed in snakebite patients. The cytotoxic components found in snake venoms belong to a variety of toxin classes and may cause cytotoxic ...

Degradomics for large‐scale mechanistic insights on proteases and proteolysis in human health

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 13, Page 3881-3898, July 2026.
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).

Venoms of Rear-Fanged Snakes: New Proteins and Novel Activities

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Snake venom research has focused on front-fanged venomous snakes because of the high incidence of human morbidity and mortality from envenomations and larger venom yields of these species, while venoms from rear-fanged snakes have been largely neglected.

High throughput screening and identification of coagulopathic snake venom proteins and peptides using nanofractionation and proteomics approaches.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020
Snakebite is a neglected tropical disease that results in a variety of systemic and local pathologies in envenomed victims and is responsible for around 138,000 deaths every year.
