Proteomic features characterization of Hymenoptera venom allergy [PDF]
Allergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2019 Abstract Background Hymenoptera venom allergy is one of the most frequent causes of anaphylaxis. In its most severe form, the reaction to wasp and honey bee stings may be life-threatening. Therefore, immediate and proper diagnosis of venom allergy and implementation of suitable therapy are extremely important.

Proteomic and Transcriptomic Techniques to Decipher the Molecular Evolution of Venoms [PDF]
Toxins, 2021 Nature’s library of venoms is a vast and untapped resource that has the potential of becoming the source of a wide variety of new drugs and therapeutics. The discovery of these valuable molecules, hidden in diverse collections of different venoms, requires highly specific genetic and proteomic sequencing techniques.
