Tentacle Transcriptome and Venom Proteome of the Pacific Sea Nettle, Chrysaora fuscescens (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa) [PDF]
Toxins, 2016 Jellyfish venoms are rich sources of toxins designed to capture prey or deter predators, but they can also elicit harmful effects in humans. In this study, an integrated transcriptomic and proteomic approach was used to identify putative toxins and their

Honeybee Venom Proteome Profile of Queens and Winter Bees as Determined by a Mass Spectrometric Approach [PDF]
Toxins, 2015 Venoms of invertebrates contain an enormous diversity of proteins, peptides, and other classes of substances. Insect venoms are characterized by a large interspecific variation resulting in extended lists of venom compounds.

Systemic impact of intramuscular snake envenomation and intravenous immunoglobulin-based antivenom treatment on murine plasma proteome and peptidome. [PDF]
Protein SciAbstract Snake envenomation remains a critical global public health challenge. In Brazil, the genus Bothrops is responsible for most accidents, typically resulting in coagulopathy, hemorrhage, and renal failure. Despite its clinical prevalence, the molecular mechanisms driving plasma protein disturbances remain poorly understood.

Proteomic analysis of FACS-enriched whole nematocysts from the colonial hydrozoan Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus [PDF]
Toxicon: XCnidarians possess a cell-based venom system in the form of nematocytes or “stinging cells” that are found across various tissues. The scattered distribution of these venom-containing cells makes isolation difficult, particularly for proteomic studies ...

The Venom Proteome of the Ecologically Divergent Australian Elapid, Southern Death Adder Acanthophis antarcticus [PDF]
ToxinsThe composition of Australian snake venoms is the least well-known of any continent. We characterised the venom proteome of the southern death adder Acanthophis antarcticus—one of the world’s most morphologically and ecologically divergent elapids. Using

Multi-Omic Identification of Venom Proteins Collected from Artificial Hosts of a Parasitoid Wasp
Toxins, 2023 Habrobracon hebetor is a parasitoid wasp capable of infesting many lepidopteran larvae. It uses venom proteins to immobilize host larvae and prevent host larval development, thus playing an important role in the biocontrol of lepidopteran pests.
