New linear polyamine derivatives in spider venoms

Toxicon, 2005
Linear free polyamines were characterized in the venom of the spiders Agelenopsis aperta, Hololena curta, and Paracoelotes birulai by RP-HPLC coupled to mass spectrometry. The several linear polyamines found were tetramine, pentamine, and hexamine derivatives. Some of these natural products were identified as N-hydroxylated, guanidylated, or acetylated

Polypeptide neurotoxins from spider venoms

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1999
Spider venoms contain a variety of toxic components. The polypeptide toxins are divided into low and high molecular mass types. Small polypeptide toxins interacting with cation channels display spatial structure homology. They can affect the functioning of calcium, sodium, or potassium channels.

Neuroactive Toxins of Spider Venoms

Journal of Toxicology: Toxin Reviews, 1991
AbstractA variety of neuroactive toxins have been found in the venom of spiders. The venom of Latrodectus mactans(black widow spider) is known as a potent neurotoxin, fatal to humans and animals. The effective component, α-latrotoxin (Mr=130,000) acts on the nerve terminals, causing massive release of transmitters and depletion of the synaptic vesicles,

Protocols for Peptidomic Analysis of Spider Venoms

2009
Spider venom contains a complex mixture of components with a large range of molecular masses (0.1-60 kDa) exhibiting a diverse array of actions. Most of these components are proteinaceous molecules - biologically active proteins and peptides. Proteomics profiling of spider venoms (the components with MW >10 kDa) could be achieved through conventional 2-
