As a professional venomomics service provider, Creative Proteomics has rich service experience and professional service level, provides complete solutions for spider venom research to help customers explore spider venom systems, analyze spider venom components, their biochemical properties and pharmacological activities.
Spiders are a variety of predatory arthropods, and they are known for their complex venom systems used to suppress their prey. Spiders produce their venom components in the special secreting cells of the venom glands, which are surrounded by the muscle layer, and control the release of venom by squeezing the venom glands. Spider venom is a mixture of many chemical substances, containing many highly specific and effective proteins and peptides, suitable for biomedical or agrochemical applications. The spider venom of a specific species is a mixture containing more than one hundred components that act on different targets, including various receptors, mainly located in the muscle or nervous system, cell membranes and extracellular matrix. Although a single component may be toxic, it is the synergy between these components that can exert the full toxicity of the venom.
We are committed to advancing the development of spider venom research, focusing on providing diverse analysis techniques to study the structure and function of spider venom components. Specific spider venom solutions include:
Categories | Description | Technical methods |
---|---|---|
Small molecules | Including ions, organic acids, nucleotides, nucleosides, amino acids, amines and polyamines. | Sequencing, BLAST, HPLC, MS, etc. |
Larger proteins | It is a key component of spider venom, including hyaluronidase, collagenase, phospholipase, etc. | |
Cysteine-rich peptides | It is a functionally important component, which is explored from several aspects such as structural patterns, target points, and interactions. | |
Antimicrobial peptides | It has a high positive net charge and a large amount of hydrophobic amino acids, which destroys the integrity of the cell membrane. |
