The paper defines the STX binding code for saxiphilin proteins and identifies new members of the Anuran saxiphilin family.

This study investigates poison frog dietary preferences, finding that frogs prefer smaller prey items and that alkaloid load does not significantly alter their preferences.

This study investigates how the Dyeing poison frog metabolizes pumiliotoxin into a more potent alkaloid and identifies gene expression changes and potential metabolic enzymes involved.

The paper investigates how alkaloid sequestration affects gene expression and protein abundance in poison frogs, identifying transport proteins and saxiphilin as potential mediators of toxin accumulation.
