The book also covers our current knowledge of venom components, toxins and their modes of action. The first section of Spider Venom includes contributions regarding the wide diversity of spider venom components and depicts some of their biological effects (antimicrobial, ion channel modulators, insecticides, this includes peptide and non-peptide toxins), and emphasizes spiders of public health importance. The second section covers transcriptomes, proteomes (and peptidomics), bioinformatics and molecular dynamics. The last section describes antimicrobial, insecticidal toxins, envenomation and the medical potential of spider venoms. Spider venoms are a great and extensive source of bioactive compounds, and as such form a boundless and bountiful area awaiting discovery. It is by virtue of dedicated scientists that new toxins are discovered and that new insights arise, leading the way towards the investigation of their pharmacological effects, and hopefully, as a consequence, arriving at the discovery of venom components as new drug candidates. 410 0$aToxinology,$x2542-761X 606 $aPharmaceutical technology 606 $aBiochemistry 606 $aAnimal physiology 606 $aPharmaceutical Sciences/Technology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21010 606 $aAnimal Biochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14013 606 $aAnimal Physiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33030 615 0$aPharmaceutical technology. 615 0$aBiochemistry. 615 0$aAnimal physiology. 615 14$aPharmaceutical Sciences/Technology. 615 24$aAnimal Biochemistry. 615 24$aAnimal Physiology. 676 $a610 702 $aGopalakrishnakone$b P$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aCorzo$b Gerardo A$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $ade Lima$b Maria Elena$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aDiego-García$b Elia$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253861103321 996 $aSpider Venoms$92512610 997 $aUNINA
