Proteomic Analysis of the Venom from the Ruby Ant <i>Myrmica rubra</i> and the Isolation of a Novel Insecticidal Decapeptide

Proteomic Analysis of the Venom from the Ruby Ant <i>Myrmica rubra</i> and the Isolation of a Novel Insecticidal Decapeptide

Ants are a biodiverse group of insects that have evolved toxic venom containing many undiscovered bioactive molecules. In this study, we found that the venom of the ruby ant <i>Myrmica rubra</i> is a rich source of peptides. LC-MS analysis revealed the presence of 142 different peptides...
