Protease activity profiling of snake venoms using high-throughput peptide screening [PDF]
Snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs) and snake venom serine proteinases (SVSPs) are among the most abundant enzymes in many snake venoms, particularly among viperids. These proteinases are responsible for some of the clinical manifestations classically

Development of a Broad-Spectrum Antiserum against Cobra Venoms Using Recombinant Three-Finger Toxins
Three-finger toxins (3FTXs) are the most clinically relevant components in cobra (genus Naja) venoms. Administration of the antivenom is the recommended treatment for the snakebite envenomings, while the efficacy to cross-neutralize the different cobra ...

Bioactive components in fish venoms
Animal venoms are widely recognized excellent resources for the discovery of novel drug leads and physiological tools. Most are comprised of a large number of components, of which the enzymes, small peptides, and proteins are studied for their important ...

The compounds that we recognize as toxins and venoms span an enormous diversity of pharmacological and ecological functions. The selection pressures driving the modification of venoms and toxins are fundamentally different from those of other proteins, and result in somewhat different evolutionary dynamics.

The Geography of Success: A Spatial Analysis of Export Intensity in the Italian Wine Industry
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the paradox of how Italy's fragmented, SME‐dominated wine industry achieves global export success. Moving beyond purely firm‐centric explanations, we test whether export intensity is spatially dependent, clustering geographically in regional ecosystems.
