Animal Venoms have Potential to Treat Cancer.
Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2019The resistance to chemotherapeutics by the cancerous cells has made its treatment more complicated. Animal venoms have emerged as an alternative strategy for anti-cancer therapeutics.

Venom-Sweet-Venom: N-Linked Glycosylation in Snake Venom Toxins
Protein & Peptide Letters, 2009Protein glycosylation represents one of the most important post-translational events, and is a mean of diversifying a protein without recourse to the genome. The venoms produced by snakes contain an abundance of glycoproteins with N-linked carbohydrates.

AbstractObjective: Studies have noted the relatively common occurrence of positive urine results with the Commonwealth Serum Laboratories Venom Detection Kit (VDK) when testing patients with suspected snakebite who are not envenomed. Possible explanations have been false positive test results or subclinical envenoming.

Venomics: integrative venom proteomics and beyond
Biochemical Journal, 2017Venoms are integrated phenotypes that evolved independently in, and are used for predatory and defensive purposes by, a wide phylogenetic range of organisms. The same principles that contribute to the evolutionary success of venoms, contribute to making the study of venoms of great interest in such diverse fields as evolutionary ecology and ...

Unmasking venom gland transcriptomes in reptile venoms
Analytical Biochemistry, 2002While structural studies of reptile venom toxins can be achieved using lyophilized venom samples, until now the cloning of precursor cDNAs required sacrifice of the specimen for dissection of the venom glands. Here we describe a simple and rapid technique that unmasks venom protein mRNAs present in lyophilized venom samples. To illustrate the technique

Snake venoms are complex mixtures containing many different biologically active proteins and peptides. A number of these proteins act on components of the haemostatic system in humans. The paper focuses on those venom constituents that affect the blood coagulation pathway, endothelial cells and platelets. Several highly purified venom enzymes have been

Publisher Summary This chapter illustrates various types of venoms found in insects. Venoms are biologically active liquids delivered into or onto another organism through a piercing structure such as a mouthpart or sting apparatus and often resulting in pain, tissue damage, paralysis, or death in the target organism.

Toxins are produced by numerous microorganisms and invertebrates as well as by higher plants and animals. Venoms are produced by many groups of animals, from coelenterates to vertebrates. While toxins and venoms are the primary toxicological concern in natural ecosystems, they are frequently of importance in agroecosystems and in military deployments ...
