  • You'd think that a goanna would be significantly resistant to the venom of any snake it was hunting and eating, but that isn't the case," Fry says. (cosmosmagazine.com)
  • Snake venom can only cause harm to goannas if it's injected into its body by the snake's fangs - it can't be absorbed directly through the skin. (cosmosmagazine.com)
  • the presynaptic β-neurotoxic heterodimeric PLA(2), Mojave toxin, and two serine proteinases comprise, respectively, 66 and 27% of the C. tigris toxin arsenal, whereas a VEGF-like protein, a CRISP molecule, a medium-sized disintegrin, and 1-2 PIII-SVMPs each represent 0.1-5% of the total venom proteome. (unboundmedicine.com)
  • In addition, we found that venom lethality of C. tigris and other North American rattlesnake type II venoms correlates with the concentration of Mojave toxin A-subunit, supporting the view that the neurotoxic venom phenotype of crotalid type II venoms may be described as a single-allele adaptation.
