Snakebite Envenomation and Kidney Injury or Disease: A Systematic Review of Epidemiological, Pathophysiological, Diagnostic, and Therapeutic Evidence

Snakebite envenomation is a Neglected Tropical Disease affecting millions of people annually; acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of its most severe complications, particularly following bites by hematotoxic snakes (e.g., *Bothrops* spp., *Daboia russelii*,

The many dimeric faces of Lys49 PLA2‐like proteins: Conformational plasticity and membrane binding drive functional dimer states

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.
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 ...
