1. Proteome of fraction from Tityus serrulatus venom reveals new enzymes and toxins
Abstract Background: Tityus serrulatus venom (Ts venom) is a complex mixture of several compounds with biotechnological and therapeutical potentials, which highlights the importance of the identification and characterization of these components. Although a considerable number of studies have been dedicated to the characterization of this complex cocktail, t

2. It is time for top-down venomics
Abstract The protein composition of animal venoms is usually determined by peptide-centric proteomics approaches (bottom-up proteomics). However, this technique cannot, in most cases, distinguish among toxin proteoforms, herein called toxiforms, because of the protein inference problem. Top-down proteomics (TDP) analyzes intact proteins without digestion and

3. An overview of Bothrops erythromelas venom
Abstract This review discusses studies on the venom of Bothrops erythromelas published over the past 36 years. During this period, many contributions have been made to understand the venomous snake, its venom, and its experimental and clinical effects better. The following chronological overview is based on 29 articles that were published between 1979 and 20

4. Initial peptidomic profiling of Brazilian sea urchins: Arbacia lixula, Lytechinus variegatus and Echinometra lucunter
Abstract Background Sea urchins can be found throughout the Brazilian coast and are reported to be one of the major causes of marine accidents on the shoreline. Although not lethal, these accidents are reported to be extremely painful. In order to understand the toxinology of the Brazilian urchins, a peptidomic approach was performed aiming to characterize

5. Thalassophryne nattereri fish venom: from the envenoming to the understanding of the immune system
Thalassophryne nattereri (niquim) is a venomous fish found off North and Northeast coast of Brazil, where it is known by the severity of the accidents involving humans. This review article is divided into four topics. The first one provides a brief description of the animal biology and its distribution off Brazilian coastal waters, the venom apparatus, signs

8. Preliminary pharmacological studies with the venom obtained from nematocysts of Macrorhynchia philippina (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa) / Estudos farmacológicos preliminares com a peçonha obtida dos nematocistos de Macrorhynchia philippina (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa)
Muitas interações entre organismos são mediadas pela liberação de substâncias biologicamente ativas. Nos Cnidários esse tipo de interação é ainda mais marcante devido a organelas características do grupo, denominadas nematocistos. Usados tanto na captura de alimento quanto para defesa do organismo, os nematocistos contêm toxinas com ações que v
