Proteomic profile of the venom of three dark-colored Tityus (Scorpiones: Buthidae) from the tropical rainforests of Costa Rica
(2023)
Objective: We aimed to elucidate the potential differences in the venom peptide sequences of three Tityus species
from Costa Rican rainforests: T. jaimei, T. championi and T. dedoslargos, compared to T. cf. asthenes ...
Venomics of the scorpion Tityus ocelote (Scorpiones, Buthidae): Understanding venom evolution in the subgenus Archaeotityus
(2022)
The subgenus Tityus (Archaeotityus) includes small variegated species considered until recently, a basal group within Tityus, one of the most diverse and medically relevant genera of scorpions in the New World. Archaeotityus ...
Venom characterization of the bark scorpion Centruroides edwardsii (Gervais 1843): composition, biochemical activities and in vivo toxicity for potential prey
(2019)
In this study, we characterize the venom of Centruroides edwardsii, one of the most abundant scorpions in urban
and rural areas of Costa Rica, in terms of its biochemical constituents and their biological activities. C. ...
Biochemical characterization of the venom of Central American scorpion Didymocentrus krausi Francke, 1978 (Diplocentridae) and its toxic effects in vivo and in vitro
(2019)
non-buthid venoms, for which knowledge is scarce. In this work, we characterized the venom of a Diplocentridae
species, Didymocentrus krausi, a small fossorial scorpion that inhabits the Tropical Dry Forest of Central ...
