Looptree, Fennec, and Snake of ICRT [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 We introduce a new theory of plane $\mathbb R$-tree, to define plane ICRT (inhomogeneous continuum random tree), and its looptree, fennec (a Gaussian free field on the looptree), and snake. We prove that a.s. the looptree is compact, and that a.s. the fennec and snake are continuous.

Concanavalin A-Binding Enzymes of Crotalus scutulatus scutulatus Venom [PDF]
, 1985 Crotalus scutulatus scutulatus crude venom was separated into two fractions by Concanavalin A Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography. The proteins binding to Con A exhibited phosphomonoesterase (orthophosphoric monoester phosphohydrolase EC 3.1.3.2 ...

Identification of presynaptic neurotoxin complexes in the venoms of three Australian copperheads (Austrelaps spp.) and the efficacy of tiger snake antivenom to prevent or reverse neurotoxicity [PDF]
, 2011 The venom of the Australian lowlands copperhead, Austrelaps superbus, produces significant and potentially lethal neurotoxic paralysis in cases of clinical envenomation. However, little is known about the neurotoxic components within this venom or venoms

Snakebite: An Exploratory Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Adjunct Treatment Strategies. [PDF]
, 2018 The cost-effectiveness of the standard of care for snakebite treatment, antivenom, and supportive care has been established in various settings. In this study, based on data from South Indian private health-care providers, we address an additional ...

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2009 Bothrops snake venoms have been proved toxic to a variety of cell types, in both in vivo and in vitro models. Studies on the pharmacological actions of Bothrops venoms from Argentina are relatively scarce and the direct action of the crude venoms has not

eLife, 2023 For decades, studies of snake venoms focused on the venom-ome-specific toxins (VSTs). VSTs are dominant soluble proteins believed to contribute to the main venomous effects and emerged into gene clusters for fast adaptation and diversification of snake ...

The electronic structure and dipole moment of charybdotoxin, a scorpion venom peptide with K+ channel blocking activity [PDF]
Computational and Theoretical Chemistry 963 (2011) 384-393, 2010 The electronic structure of charybdotoxin (ChTX), a scorpion venom peptide that is known to act as a potassium channel blocker, is investigated with the aid of quantum mechanical calculations. The dipole moment vector (145 D) of ChTX can be stirred by the full length KcsA potassium channel's macrodipole (403 D) thereby assuming the proper orientation ...
