Identification of bradykinins in solitary wasp venoms
(Elsevier B.V., 2002-03-01)
Bradykinins were identified in three solitary wasp venoms. Purification and characterization of the venom extract of the scoliid wasp Megacampsomeris prismatica led to the identification of bradykinin and threonine(6)-bradykinin ...

High-performance gel filtration patterns of venoms from three species of wasps of the genus Polybia (hymenoptera, vespidae).
(1996-01-01)
The profiles of high-performance gel filtration of venoms from Polybia paulista, Polybia ignobilis and Polybia occidentalis occidentalis showed 13 peaks distributed among the three species. These profiles presented ...

Chemical and Biological Characteristics of Antimicrobial alpha-Helical Peptides Found in Solitary Wasp Venoms and Their Interactions with Model Membranes
(Mdpi, 2019-10-01)
Solitary wasps use their stinging venoms for paralyzing insect or spider prey and feeding them to their larvae. We have surveyed bioactive substances in solitary wasp venoms, and found antimicrobial peptides together with ...
Wasp venomic: Unravelling the toxins arsenal of Polybia paulista venom and its potential pharmaceutical applications
(2017-05-24)
Polybia paulista (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) is a neotropical social wasp from southeast Brazil. As most social Hymenoptera, venom from P. paulista comprises a complex mixture of bioactive toxins ranging from low molecular ...
Ultramorphological analysis of the venom glands and their histochemical relationship with the convoluted glands in the primitive social paper wasp Polistes versicolor (Hymenoptera: Vespidae)
(Centro de Estudos de Venenos e Animais Peçonhentos, 2005-06)
The venom glands are part of the most important defense weapon in Aculeata: the venom apparatus. The arrangement of these glands can vary among species, but in general they are composed of long secretory tubules connected ...
Conformation and lytic activity of eumenine mastoparan: A new antimicrobial peptide from wasp venom
(2004-09-01)
Eumenine mastoparan-AF (EMP-AF) is a novel membrane active tetradecapeptide recently isolated from the venom of solitary wasp, Anterhynchium flavomarginatum micado. It was reported previously that EMP-AF peptide presented ...
