This study reveals age-related changes in the composition and bioactivity of Vipera berus venom, linking ontogenetic dietary shifts to venom phenotype and function.

This study uses transcriptomics to analyze the toxin composition of Hottentotta judaicus scorpion venom, identifying potential health risks and bioresource value.

This study identifies peptide toxins in the venom of horse fly larvae, suggesting they play a key role in prey incapacitation, with some similarities to adult venom components.

This paper presents a genome-guided functional venomics analysis of many-banded krait venom, revealing its composition, activity, and β-bungarotoxin dimerization patterns.

The paper investigates sex-based venom variation in the common adder, finding minimal differences in venom profiles and bioactivity between sexes.

This study characterizes the venom of yellow-sac spiders to show convergent evolution of defensive venom components across spider lineages.

The paper compares spider venom enzymes across databases and datasets, revealing discrepancies and highlighting underrepresented enzyme diversity and functions.

The paper enhances antimicrobial activity of a spider venom peptide while maintaining low toxicity through bioengineering.

This study compares venom profiles and activities between melanistic and normally-colored common adders, finding minor differences that are not clinically significant.
