Abstract
Molecular and biochemical properties of parasitoid Hymenoptera's venom proteins are currently receiving an increasing interest. In this review, we will highlight the progress that has been made over the past 10 years in fundamental research on this field. Main knowledge acquired on the structural features of parasitoid venom peptides, proteins and enzymes will be summarized and discussed and several examples showing the diversity of their biological functions will be given with respect to future prospects and applications.Mesh:
