Australian Scorpion <i>Hormurus waigiensis</i> Venom Fractions Show Broad Bioactivity through Modulation of Bio-Impedance and Cytosolic Calcium
Scorpion venoms are a rich source of bioactive molecules, but characterisation of toxin peptides affecting cytosolic Ca<sup>2+</sup>, central to cell signalling and cell death, is limited. We undertook a functional screening of the venom of the Australian scorpion <i>Hormurus waigi...
