Proteotranscriptomic Insights into the Venom Composition of the Wolf Spider Lycosa tarantula
Toxins, 2020 Spider venoms represent an original source of novel compounds with therapeutic and agrochemical potential. Whereas most of the research efforts have focused on large mygalomorph spiders, araneomorph spiders are equally promising but require more ...

Multicomponent venom of the spider Cupiennius salei: a bioanalytical investigation applying different strategies [PDF]
, 2012 The multicomponent venom of the spider Cupiennius salei was separated by three different chromatographic strategies to facilitate subsequent analysis of peptidic venom components by tandem mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS and ESI-MS), Edman degradation ...

Brown Recluse spider bite mediated hemolysis: clinical features, a possible role for complement inhibitor therapy, and reduced RBC surface glycophorin A as a potential biomarker of venom exposure. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The venom of Loxosceles reclusa (Brown Recluse spider) can cause a severe, life-threatening hemolysis in humans for which no therapy is currently available in the USA beyond supportive measures.

Linear Peptides—A Combinatorial Innovation in the Venom of Some Modern Spiders
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 In the venom of spiders, linear peptides (LPs), also called cytolytical or antimicrobial peptides, represent a largely neglected group of mostly membrane active substances that contribute in some spider species considerably to the killing power of spider

Reasoning with Spider Diagrams [PDF]
, 1999 Spider diagrams combine and extend Venn diagrams and Euler circles to express constraints on sets and their relationships with other sets. These diagrams can usefully be used in conjunction with object-oriented modelling notations such as the Unified ...

Spider Venoms: Biochemical Aspects [PDF]
American Zoologist, 1969 SYNOPSIS. The venoms of spiders are quite complex and contain an array of biologically active components. The majority of studies on the biochemical aspects of these venoms have utilized four species: Phoneutria fera, Lycosa erythrognatha, Atrax robustus , and Latrodectus mactans .

Revealing the Venomous Secrets of the Spider’s Web
Journal of Proteome Research, 2020 Orb-weaving spiders use a highly strong, sticky and elastic web to catch their prey. These web properties alone would be enough for the entrapment of prey; however, these spiders may be hiding venomous secrets in the web, which current research is revealing. Here, we provide strong proteotranscriptomic evidence for the presence of toxin/neurotoxin-like
